My wife and I are working on a book that will contain photographs of paintings that were exhibited, with owner permission, in shows hung by wife or obtained from other photographs. All of the works are by the same artist. She is not doing the book for profit. It is purely a public service to help preserve and increase local knowledge concerning a local self-taught artist who died in 1982. My wife has a record of the owners of all the works. However, many of them are deceased. If she publishes photos of the paintings in her book, with attribution to the last known owner, but does not have written permission to do so, what is her liability exposure?
