3-1 Discussion: Ethics and Copyright in Graphic Design
On this discussion I’m torn on this subject (as it pertains to Koons). As a designer we look at different things for inspiration: books, magazines, ads, prints, other artists, anything that will inspire us to create. There are times when you look at someone’s work and it reminds you of something you have already seen. You might say to yourself or out loud: “that reminds me of...” or “that looks a lot like _____work?” Is it plagiarism? Or appropriation? It is a compliment? Or stealing? I think it all depends on how the work is being used and who’s original work it is.
In Koon’s case, he took an advertisement image and created a dimensional sculpture. Even though it looks similar it’s not quite the same. There are things in the sculpture that do not appear in the photograph so one can argue that it’s not plagiarism. Koons big mistake was naming his pieces the same header that was used in the ad. Then you also have to question why it took Davidovici so long to sue Koon? Was it because the one edition of Faitd’Hiver sold for $4.3 million dollars? Who knows.

As outlined, in the Stanford University Copyright and Fair Use Library, “A parody is a work that ridicules another, usually well-known work, by imitating it in a comic way. Judges understand that, by its nature, parody demands some taking from the original work being parodied. Unlike other forms of fair use, a fairly extensive use of the original work is permitted in a parody in order to “conjure up” the
Based on the mural image "Going to the Olympics" by Frank Romero 's he was paid to create a work of art in the Los Angles free way. In my opinion I think its a work of art because this is a mural image and the time it and pride it took makes it a work of art. The time and the paint it must have taken to make this image its very impressive. I can see the culture and creativity they are trying to show. They graffiti in LA show what Los Angeles is all about and based on my personal experience each time I go to LA
Bouchat’s act of send a fax copy of his drawings to the representatives of the Ravens is more than hypothetical and these acts support the Ravens infringement of Bouchat works. The court likewise sustained the fact that Bouchat drawing qualifies for copyright protection, however, the defendants argue that the drawings of Bouchat do not qualify for protection because it does not contain original elements. According to the court, while it is true that the
On the other hand, even when they have a lot of differences they also many similar qualities. One example is that the titles are the exact same words, but different color and style of font “The New Yorker”. Art Spiegelman and Francoise Mouly image one of the twin towers has a peek at it and is slightly covering “New” in the title. In Goodrich image the flags on the taxi are covering
Parody is an reproduction of something intended to mock other authors, ideas, or work. The Onion mocks the idea of Cliff Notes by making up a situation, and making fun of the situation.
Satire Oral Images are powerful; Frank R Barnard quoted “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Images have meanings and images convey many messages. Satirical images are the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vice by use of images. Satirical images typically ridicule political contexts. The political agenda changes depending on the country.
One example of this is “As part of this ceremony, women bake their heads in small ovens for about an hour.” (Miner 505). This is satire because it makes the audience laugh while showing them that we, as Americans, are extremely concerned with our image. American’s are seen as wanting to be liked by everyone. We go through so many processes to have a better appeal to others.
Some examples “Don’t forget to thank Satan for the baby Alive he gave you last year”. Even though they used the name Satan it was actually implied to be for Santa. Satire is the use of humor to overly exaggerate the critical purpose and to also mock other’s weaknesses.
For example, one way he shows satire is in the beginning of the prompt he says “country was up in arms, the war was on, in every breast burned the holy fire of patriotism”(Twain). Twain is showing how the soldiers were ready for war that even their chest was on fire because of how much patriotism they had. When soldiers go to war I don't think there breast burned them for feeling patriotic. This shows how ironic he is because that didn't really happen. Twain trys to explain to the people how the soilders were so happy to go fight and knew they were going to win
According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, satire is a “way of using humor to show that someone or something is foolish, weak, or bad”. Satire shocks its reader into awareness of the situation through the use of sarcasm, blunt and harsh words, and/or exaggeration of the issue. The two types of satire utilize these
Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. A literary work in which human foolishness or vice is attacked through irony, derision, or wit. Mockery is teasing and contemptuous language or behavior directed at a particular person or thing. Also the behavior or speech that makes fun of someone or something in a hurtful way. “The Rape of the Lock” by Alexander Pope and “My Satirical Self” by Wyatt Mason from The New York times are both about satire and mockery.
This absence of total ownership begs the question: what is art theft? It 's clear that art can be stolen, books can be copied verbatim and other people 's work can be plagiarized. However, it is important to remember that there is a great deal of difference between mechanically copying something and developing a previous idea. In Lethem 's paper, he describes how an artist had used one of his earlier books and created a sculpture of a gun containing the original script. "I couldn 't take offense at that.
One of the clearest similarities is that both artists
With this cartoon originating in the forties it is important to understand that it was produced during the WW2, hence the military theme that is prevalent in the animation. If this cartoon is marked as a parody we should think that it is not offensive, because of its purpose. However, this claim can be made only in our time. Back in 40s, although this is a parody, the purpose of the cartoon is to laugh at the African American community and not at the actual cartoon itself. The audience was white and wealthy, meaning that they watched the cartoon and found it funny and not racist.
