And I guess especially good news for the named people involved.<br /><br />As for GAG - if they refuse to quote: "disclose how much money their organization has received to date or how the money has been spent" I do not see how Walterhttp://www.brandworks.no/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1902667975970127836.post-13915162164729441352011-05-10T01:19:13.960-04:002011-05-10T01:19:13.960-04:00I am both an artist and a history major.

I'm wondering how historians are reacting to how corporations are commercially benefitting from potentially historical artworks and artifacts that are "orphaned" by their creators. <br /><br />Will historical photos from significant historical events be claimed by private companies because they can profit from them, now? Probably so. <br /><ambernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1902667975970127836.post-42767463081397243652011-05-03T20:46:23.763-04:002011-05-03T20:46:23.763-04:00As a member of SILA, who, in 1978, was part of a t...As a member of SILA, who, in 1978, was part of a team to institute GAG's concepts and pricing guidelines to Los Angeles, I am embarrassed to see what it has become over the years. With the exception of their Pricing and Ethical Guidelines, which I still incorporate in my daily business, the Guild has totally lost touch with its constituency.

Many thanks to Brad Holland and the legal team that successfully (so far) have defended the rights of illustrators against those that would use our property at their will.
