Mattiusi Iyaituk Presents on Artist Copyright

Montreal-based copyright collective SODRAC (The Society for Reproduction Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers in Canada), invited former Inuit Art Foundation President Mattiusi Iyaituk to present at the World Intellectual Property Organization’s (WIPO) day of roundtables in Geneva, Switzerland, in May 2017. The roundtables, co-organized by the International Confederation of Societies of Authors and Composers, brought together artists from around the world to discuss copyright and artist resale rights.

Iyaituk’s participation at the WIPO marks an important opportunity for Inuit artists’ voices to be included in these global conversations.
