Lawyering Up with Logan Hicks Art World Horror Stories

- Arts
This is the fifth installment of the Art World Horror Stories, but it’s the first time we hear how this podcast moved from a segment of The Not Real Art show, into a podcast of its own! Tune in to find out who created the spooky theme music that sets the scene so well, as well as who should be contributing and listening to this series (all artists across all mediums!). Today’s guest is world-renowned artist Logan Hicks, who tells us of two ongoing horror stories, and how he is working through each of them. The first terrifying tale is a lesson in intellectual property, and why it’s better to have a lawyer before you need one! A steak mogul we all have heard of has been ducking and diving Logan for over two years all the while using Logan's art as part of the advertising for his empire. If that isn't enough to give you shivers, Logan's second horror story of his art being damaged by Studio16 and the subsequent gaslighting, cold-shouldering, and outright lying, should be! Logan has learned some valuable lessons from both of these awful experiences, and he shares these with you today. So, if you are looking for a thrill of horror interspersed with some sage advice on how to avoid experiencing an art world horror story first-hand, press 'Play' now!
