Those hoping for a dramatic battle between a corporation and a Bronx art collective will have to wait, according to the New York Post. Just two days after The New York Times reported on a copyright infringement incident between car company Fiat and South Bronx graffiti group TATS Cru, the two parties already settled. “We are pleased to announce that the parties have reached an amicable resolution to this matter” said Fiat spokeswoman Dianna Gutierrez. “Details of this agreement are confidential.”
Fiat used an image of TATS Cru graffiti in a recent commercial featuring Jennifer Lopez driving through the Bronx, though later reports showed she was not actually there.
