  • Taking Intellectual Property Into Their Own Hands
    Taking Intellectual Property into Their Own Hands Amy Adler* & Jeanne C. Fromer** When we think about people seeking relief for infringement of their intellectual property rights under copyright and trademark laws, we typically assume they will operate within an overtly legal scheme. By contrast, creators of works that lie outside the subject matter, or at least outside the heartland, of intellectual property law often remedy copying of their works by asserting extralegal norms within their own tight-knit communities. In recent years, however, there has been a growing third category of relief-seekers: those taking intellectual property into their own hands, seeking relief outside the legal system for copying of works that fall well within the heartland of copyright or trademark laws, such as visual art, music, and fashion. They exercise intellectual property self-help in a constellation of ways. Most frequently, they use shaming, principally through social media or a similar platform, to call out perceived misappropriations. Other times, they reappropriate perceived misappropriations, therein generating new creative works. This Article identifies, illustrates, and analyzes this phenomenon using a diverse array of recent examples. Aggrieved creators can use self-help of the sorts we describe to accomplish much of what they hope to derive from successful infringement litigation: collect monetary damages, stop the appropriation, insist on attribution of their work, and correct potential misattributions of a misappropriation. We evaluate the benefits and demerits of intellectual property self-help as compared with more traditional intellectual property enforcement.

  • Dia Art Foundation Readings in Contemporary Poetry Major Jackson and Peter Schjeldahl
    Dia Art Foundation Readings in Contemporary Poetry Major Jackson and Peter Schjeldahl Tuesday, March 5, 2019 Dia:Chelsea 535 West 22nd Street, 5th Floor New York City Introduction by Vincent Katz Major Jackson’s books of poems include Leaving Saturn (University of Georgia Press, 2002), Hoops (W. W. Norton & Company, 2006), Holding Company (W. W. Norton & Company, 2010), and Roll Deep (W. W. Norton & Company, 2015). Jackson is the Richard Dennis Green and Gold University Distinguished Professor in the department of English at University of Vermont, Burlington, and a graduate faculty member of the Creative Writing Program at New York University. He serves as the poetry editor of the Harvard Review. Many of the references in Major Jackson’s poetry - e.g. “I better git it in my soul” - are known to me, and many others are not. They all intrigue me to know more. The title of his most recent volume, Roll Deep, seemed to me as though it might come from football; I intuit a physicality there, a sense of simultaneous mobility and pleasurable stasis. Deep too as in profound. A more in-depth study revealed the phrase refers to the comfort zone of one’s posse. In this case, Jackson extends that to his wife, Didi, to whom the volume is dedicated, and their children, and beyond, via quotes from Lord Byron, Langston Hughes, and others. Jackson has always been extending, in his poetry, from his first book, Leaving Saturn, which established in vivid detail his North Philadelphia roots, to recent poems from the ongoing sequence “Urban Renewal,” set in the Cyclades, Spain, Brazil, Kenya, and Italy.

  • The Greatest Women Artists of the Twentieth Century
    This PDF is a selection from a published volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: Conceptual Revolutions in Twentieth-Century Art Volume Author/Editor: David W. Galenson Volume Publisher: Cambridge University Press Volume ISBN: 978-0-521-11232-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/gale08-1 Publication Date: October 2009 Title: The Greatest Women Artists of the Twentieth Century Author: David W. Galenson URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c5788 Chapter 5: The Greatest Women Artists of the Twentieth Century Introduction Recent decades have witnessed an intense interest in the role of women in the art of the past. Scores of museum exhibitions have been devoted to the work of women artists, and scores of monographs have examined the contributions of women to our artistic heritage. As is common in the humanities, however, the scholarly attention devoted to the role of women artists has been qualitative rather than quantitative. As a result, we now have a large amount of scholarship that analyzes the contributions of individual women artists, or of particular groups of women artists, but we do not have studies that provide systematic evaluation of the relative importance of different women artists. The present study will begin to remedy this deficiency. Specifically, this study will investigate the question of which women made the greatest contributions to art during the past century. The choice of this time period reflects the fact that women played a far greater role in the art of the twentieth century than in any earlier time. So for example the third edition of Nancy Heller’s Women Artists, published in 1997, a textbook written “to provide a richly illustrated overview of some of the most interesting professional women painters and sculptors in the Western world, from the Renaissance to the present,” devotes fully 144 pages to the twentieth century, substantially more than the total of only 97 pages devoted to all earlier centuries.

  • Artist Writings: Critical Essays, Reception, and Conditions of Production Since the 60S
    Artist Writings: Critical Essays, Reception, and Conditions of Production since the 60s by Leanne Katherine Carroll A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy—History of Art Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Leanne Katherine Carroll 2013 Artist Writings: Critical Essays, Reception, and Conditions of Production since the 60s Leanne Carroll Doctor of Philosophy—History of Art Department of Art University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This dissertation uncovers the history of what is today generally accepted in the art world, that artists are also artist-writers. I analyse a shift from writing by artists as an ostensible aberration to artist writing as practice. My structuring methodology is assessing artist writings and their conditions and reception in their moment of production and in their singularity. In Part 1, I argue that, while the Abstract-Expressionist artist-writers were negatively received, a number of AbEx- inflected conditions influenced and made manifest the valuing of artist writings. I demonstrate that Donald Judd conceived of writing as stemming from the same methods and responsibilities of the artist—following the guiding principle that art comes from art, from taking into account developments of the recent past—and as an essayistic means to argumentatively air his extra-art concerns; that writing for Dan Graham was an art world right of entry; and that Robert Smithson treated words as primary substances in a way that complicates meaning in his articles and in his objects and earthworks, in the process introducing a modernist truth to materials that gave the writing cachet while also serving as the basis for its domestication.

Galenson Volume Publisher: Cambridge University Press Volume ISBN: 978-0-521-11232-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/gale08-1 Publication Date: October 2009 Title: Painting by Proxy: The Conceptual Artist as Manufacturer Author: David W. Galenson URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c5792 Chapter 9: Painting by Proxy: The Conceptual Artist as Manufacturer Introduction It sometimes seems to me that the labor of the artist is of a very old-fashioned kind; the artist himself a survival, a craftsman or artisan of a disappearing species, working in his own room, following his own homemade empirical methods, living in untidy intimacy with his tools … Perhaps conditions are changing, and instead of this spectacle of an eccentric individual using whatever comes his way, there will instead be a picture-making laboratory, with its specialist officially clad in white, rubber-gloved, keeping to a precise schedule, armed with strictly appropriate apparatus and instruments, each with its appointed place and exact function … So far, chance has not been eliminated from practice, or mystery from method, or inspiration from regular hours; but I do not vouch for the future. Paul Valéry, 19361 In 1955, in the A.W. Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, the French philosopher Etienne Gilson, a member of the Académie Française, presented his analysis of the art of painting. These lectures were published in both English and French in 1958.2 Early in this discussion, Gilson reflected on the production of paintings: The nature of painting is such that the artist who conceives the work is also the one who executes it.

And (again) his work has triggered some turmoil in the copyright and art law world as to whether or not it would qualify as fair use.

  • THE ART WORLD NEW YORK ODYSEEY: the Whitney
    THE ART WORLD NEW YORK ODYSEEY: The Whitney reëstablishes itself downtown By Peter Schjeldahl April 27, 2015 Issue The conservation room in the Whitney’s new building, designed by Renzo Piano, who worked from “the logic of the force of necessity” to fulfill the needs of the curators and the staff. CREDIT PHOTOGRAPH BY RICHARD BARNES The Whitney Museum of American Art, long the odd duck among the Big Four of Manhattan art museums—a cohort that includes the mighty Metropolitan, the starry Modern, and the raffish Guggenheim—takes wing on May 1st, when it reopens in a new, vastly expanded headquarters downtown. The fledging owes a lot to the Italian architect Renzo Piano’s ingenious building, on Gansevoort Street, which features six floors of shapely galleries, four open-air terraces, spaces for performance and screening, a library and reading rooms, a restaurant, a café, and an over-all feeling of seductive amenity—a bar on the piazza-like ground floor bodes to be one of the toniest trysting spots in town. It is likely to win far more fans than the Whitney’s old home, Marcel Breuer’s brutalist “inverted ziggurat,” which opened in 1966, on Madison Avenue, and which it vacated six months ago and leased to the Met. Piano’s museum stands at the southern end of the High Line and hard by the Hudson River, in what remains of the tatterdemalion meatpacking district. It looms like a mother ship for both gallery-jammed Chelsea, to the north, and the puttering West Village, to the south. It is instantly a landmark on the cultural and social maps of the city—and on its poetic map, as a site to germinate memories.
