Four Stories About Copyright Law And Appropriation Art, Matthew Rimmer
Four Stories About Copyright Law And Appropriation Art, Matthew Rimmer
Matthew Rimmer
This article considers copyright law and the art of appropriation in an Australian context. It tells four stories about Australian artists - Imants Tillers, Gordon Bennett, Juan Davila and Tracey Moffatt. The stories examine the postmodern critique of copyright law, indigenous copyright and self-determination, the introduction of moral rights, and copyright, photography and film. The article concludes that the work of such contemporary artists has practical implications for the reform of copyright law.
