This chapter will investigate to what extent certain US copyright and moral right laws are capable of protecting these forms of art, by referring in particular to paintings on walls and other urban surfaces. It will focus on the following selected aspects: (i) subject matter and requirements for protection; (ii) moral rights, with a particular focus on the integrity right; and (iii) illegal artworks. There have been so far a few court decisions on these issues, with judges coming up with important findings that could have a positive influence on the further development and recognition of these forms of art.
