开放文化倡导者科斯莫·温曼与法国罗丹博物馆围绕公众获取公共资金支持的3D扫描文件一事展开了长达八年的法律争议。1温曼自2017年起请求博物馆提供这些文化遗产数字化资料的公众访问权。12019年,温曼在巴黎行政法庭提起诉讼,Communia、Wikimédia France和La Quadrature du Net随后作为共同原告加入。1
2023年12月,巴黎法院曾作出对温曼有利的裁决,认定3D扫描属于行政文件,必须公开,并判令向温曼赔偿€1,500。1然而,博物馆和文化部对这一法院命令予以无视。12025年12月,法国最高行政法院(国务委员会)推翻前次判决,驳回温曼的上诉。1该法院认定点云文件不属于行政文件,因此不适用法国信息自由法,并要求温曼支付€3,000。1国务委员会的法律分析官引用艺术家马格利特的作品《图像的背叛》来论述其观点,表述为"有时文件不是文件"。1此案卷宗超过800页,但公众无权查阅。1
An eight-year legal battle between open culture advocate Cosmo Wenman and France's Rodin Museum over public access to publicly funded 3D scan files concluded in December 2025 when the country's highest administrative court ruled against disclosure.1 The Council of State rejected Wenman's appeal, determining that the 3D scan files do not qualify as administrative documents and therefore fall outside the scope of France's freedom of information law.1 The court ordered Wenman to pay €3,000 and upheld the museum's right to withhold the digital records of public domain cultural heritage.1
Wenman began requesting access to the 3D scans in 2017, initiating a lawsuit in Paris administrative court in 2019 with support from advocacy organizations Communia, Wikimédia France, and La Quadrature du Net.1 In December 2023, a Paris court initially ruled in his favor, classifying the 3D scans as administrative documents that must be made public and ordering the museum to pay Wenman €1,500 in damages.1 However, both the museum and the French Ministry of Culture ignored the court's order without filing an appeal.1
In its December 2025 decision, the Council of State's legal officer invoked René Magritte's artwork "The Treachery of Images" to argue that "sometimes a document is not a document," characterizing the point cloud files as something other than administrative records.1 The case file exceeds 800 pages, yet remains inaccessible to the public.1
