Rob Storr provides a clear introduction and overview of the historical and contemporary issues around artists and appropriation. These are similar tensions to what the open educational movement in terms use are reuse and open educational practice are experiencing in teaching practice and general OEP practice.
Please see ( http://process.arts.ac.uk/content/egoer-and-ip-oer-case-study-example-open-arts-practice ) where I talk about EGOER (not worrying about being/practicing online, just go for it) & I give a brief example of an IP, IPR case study/experience.
