Want a hand-painted, three-foot copy of Andy Warhol's Mao? Too late. Arts-Studio.com, a Chicago-based art reproduction company, was served with a lawsuit after the Warhol Foundation discovered they were reproducing the artist's works without a license. Arts-Studio.com has taken down the index and the Warhol page of their site, but via the Google cache you can see the many other artists they reproduce -- such as the whole range of Impressionists and Warhol's friend Basquiat.
