  • Studio Notes: Why Classical and Contemporary Paintings Look So Different?
    Why Classical and Contemporary Paintings Look So Different? Photos courtesy of The Bridgeman Art Library In November, John E. Buchanan, Jr., executive director of the Portland (OR) Art Museum, invited Robert Gamblin to give a public lecture on WHY classical paintings look different from Impressionist paintings. This is the text of his lecture plus illustrations that highlight a wonderful group of French Baroque paintings on exhibit - "The Triumph of French Painting" - at the Portland Art Museum during the Fall 2003. Why do Classical and Modern Paintings look different? To answer that question, I would like to discuss with you ● the difference between indirect and direct painting techniques ● the evolution of artists' colors ● the role of the artist as creator of our cultural memory. Claude Lorrain and Claude Monet offer good examples of the two basic styles of painting: indirect and direct painting. Structure of the painting, direct vs. indirect The classical approach to painting is called indirect because what you see is a combination of three or more layers of the painting. The viewer sees all three layers visible simultaneously in different parts of the painting. The artist carefully plans the layering to create specific visual effects. Look at the diagram I drew to help it make sense. Here we are looking at the side view of a painting. ● The canvas is at the bottom ● The white ground on top of the canvas ● The actual paint layers on the ground. The first layer, called the imprimatura, is applied over the image drawn on to the ground. A thin "wash" of oil color establishes the middle tone of the painting.

Britain became “the workshop of the world.” About a quarter of the world’s people lived within the British Empire. A growing social consciousness stirred reforms. Some Victorian writers felt an optimistic promise in the era; others saw the menace of a world driven by inhuman forces. Keep the following questions in mind as you read: How were Britain and the British Empire changing during the Victorian age? What conditions helped stimulate Victorian optimism? How did the mood of later Victorian writers change? OBJECTIVES In learning about the Victorian age, you will focus on the following: • analyzing the characteristics of Victorian literature and how issues of the period influenced writers • evaluating the influences of the historical period that shaped literary characters, plots, settings, and themes in Victorian literature • connecting Victorian literature to historical contexts, current events, and your own experiences 907 00906-0920906-0920 UOU5-845482.inddUOU5-845482.indd 907907 11/10/07/10/07 9:01:509:01:50 AMAM Timeline 1837–1901 BRITISH LITERATURE Charles

    Images of Works of Art in Museum Collections: The Experience of Open Access A Study of Eleven Museums Prepared for the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation by Kristin Kelly 25 April 2013 Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 Introduction 4 Study Rationale Prior Studies Current State of Discussion and Practice 7 Practice at Museums in the Study 10 Museum Experience with Open Access 21 Catalysts Process and Decision Making Overcoming Concerns Outcomes Key Findings 26 Acknowledgments 31 Bibliography: Works Cited and Further Readings 32 Appendix A: Questionnaire 34 Appendix B: List of Participating Museums and Summaries of Their Terms and Conditions of Use 36 2 Executive Summary In December 2009, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation organized a meeting of thirteen museum directors to discuss open access to images of works of art in their collections. This meeting was seen as a catalyst for further high-level discussion on the topic; it also prompted several of the museums present to investigate issues surrounding open access. The author of this study was subsequently commissioned by the Mellon Foundation in November of 2011 to research, via their websites, the image-access policies and processes of almost fifty museums in the United States and the United Kingdom. In collaboration with Mellon staff, the author narrowed the selection of institutions to those cited in this report and developed a questionnaire (Appendix A) that was sent to each museum. The questionnaire formed the framework for in-situ discussions that were held in May and June 2012. In some cases, the author met with just one member of staff.

  • “Scholarly Publishing and the Issues of Cultural Heritage, Fair Use, Reproduction Fees and Copyrights”
    “Scholarly Publishing and the Issues of Cultural Heritage, Fair Use, Reproduction Fees and Copyrights” Workshop, January 11, 2008 Report The purpose of this workshop was to bring together leading representatives from key universities, research institutes, libraries, museums, government agencies, commercial image providers and academic publishing houses to provide an opportunity to discuss experiences in working with and publishing visual images and cultural heritage items in academic contexts, especially in the humanities. As science publishing moves forward into an increasingly fluid, international e-publishing model, the humanities scholars, especially those studying visual images, are being left farther and farther behind. They are constrained not only by restrictions to print and web publishing of images, but also by the confusion arising from conflicts of national, regional, and institutional policies concerning picture reproduction and cultural heritage citation. This is not only a question of copyright, but also a question of access, whether open or free, to uncopyrighted information, reproduction fees, and the politics of cultural heritage. Although the workshop was intended to address problems and concerns of scholars, it also aimed at addressing responsibilities of scholars in citation, fee-paying and publication of material. The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science sees an urgent need to address these problems and to communicate them, in order to find ways to ensure the continued quality of research and scholarship.

  • WYATT ALRC Submission
    Copyright and the Digitial Economy, 2012 Submission to the ALRC regarding questions 1(b), 1(d), 21 & 54 Liam Wyatt Sydney, 16 November 2012 Dear Sir/Madam, Confirming the copyright status of individual works in Australia’s cultural institutions, be they photographs, paintings, books or sculptures, is a never-ending task - especially when so many have unknown authorship, missing provenance or moral rights considerations. Fortunately for those works that have confirmed authorship, the statutory limitation of the copyright term is a bright line, clarifying when a work is definitively in the Public Domain (PD). However, what is not at all clear is the copyright status of the digital reproductions of artworks, that are produced by the museums themselves or by other professionals. That is, what is the copyright status of the images created by, and displayed on art gallery websites - are they also PD like the physical works they represent, or does it have a separate copyright status as a new work? This submission examines the moral and financial arguments about the copyright status of digitised works of PD art - firstly the justifications that they are copyrightable, and then the counter-arguments. It will then look at the legal precedents used to back up these claims in the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia with specific focus on competing levels of “originality” as they pertain to the digitisation of PD artworks. Finally it makes specific recommendations to the Australian Law Reform Commission. As this submission will demonstrate, this is not merely a theoretical problem but one of the most divisive legal issues in the contemporary cultural sector worldwide.
