#ArtnetNews: January 1—a day of hangovers, gym subscription sign-ups, and a fresh batch of artworks being freed from the nearly century-long grip of copyright law. In the U.S., New Year’s Day is also Public Domain Day, when intellectual property rights to artworks created 95 years ago lapse, and those creations can be re-used without permission, license, or fee. As of Sunday, any piece made in the year 1927 now belongs to the public domain.
