Publicist Sues Jeff Koons for Copyright Infringement

Paris-based publicist Franck Davidovici is accusing American contemporary artist Jeff Koons of unlawfully copying a 1985 advertisement in a work on display in the French capital, the plaintiff's lawyer said Wednesday.

A French bailiff joined last Thursday's crowd at the artist's retrospective at Paris's Pompidou Centre to seize documents and take photos from several angles of the artwork.

Titled "Fait d'Hiver," the porcelain work depicts a scantily dressed woman lying on her back in the snow with a pig and two penguins standing beside her.
