91. Copyright is different for things like paintings
He signed his painting as Ward Churchill. He didn't copy the painting and then sign the original artist's name. For a painting, THAT would be copyright infringement. You can find "reproductions" of fine art. As long as they don't sign their copy of Starry Night with "Vincent", it's not copyright infringement.
Plagarism of written works is another thing entirely.
