St. Petersburg artists sue Sergei Bugaev (Afrika)

[Ирина Ивановна]

Such a move , it seems to me quite possible , only the word " win-win " in this case does not seem appropriate. It is obvious that the authors are not profitable and beneficial to the defendant , at least for saving face . And then, to make a gift to the museum , it should be correct from a legal point of view, to execute documents , or pictures of the museum simply can not accept. It can be a CC under the current contract only the transfer of exclusive rights to the work, and they already have the authors , even if physically they do not have pictures . So Cyril Syzransky absolutely right.
Bugaev may be advised to return the paintings to artists , signing a settlement agreement by which the authors of one picture to select authors will leave him on the dedication . Then even than that will own legal.
