His work is currently on display at the San Fransisco MOMA (the link I supplied above). He made collages and boxes using “found art”. I’m sure that under a strict interpretation of today’s copyright laws, most of his work would run into the same issues you describe here. This is a great example of the type of transformation work that long copy rights and over-expansive derived works can kill. omething about this seemed familiar, and eventually I recalled Joseph Cornell.

Publishers, documentary filmmakers and other creators of works that include the work of others have long had to search for public domain photos or seek permission of copyright holders. While certainly there is some room to argue fair use, it seems fairly weak in this example.
