What is a Giclee?

It can be a humorous adventure to go on Web sites where digital reproduction are sold under the Giclée moniker and read the vain attempts to explain: what the word means; its genesis; how to pronounce it; or to accurately describe the process of creating digital reproductions.

A Japanese professor has demonstrated that pigeons can be trained to tell the difference between paintings that humans consider to be beautiful and paintings that, how shall we say it, don’t measure up.

Artist’s home is a Floating Green Home in New York City

The presence of the film crew, along with Ms. Mattingly’s narration, gave the scene the appearance of a very weird episode of “This Old House.” In fact, it was the final, frantic construction phase of the Waterpod, an independent project Ms. Mattingly dreamed up three years ago to explore the possibility of creating a self-sufficient community on the water — a kind of aquatic version of the Biosphere 2 complex built in the Arizona desert in the 1980s — that might offer an alternative to living on land in the future, if “our resources on land grow scarcer and sea levels rise,” she said.

Next week, if construction is completed on schedule — something that seems in question, given how much work is left — she and three other artists will begin living on the barge for five months, docking at various locations in the five boroughs, where it will be open to the public, beginning with South Street Seaport.

Shepard Fairey Sues The Associated Press

Shepard Fairey Sues The Associated Press Shepard Fairey Barack Obama PosterShepard Fairey’s Barack Obama campaign poster is still in the news even though people now refer to the subject as President Obama. Fairey has filed a lawsuit against The Associated Press, requesting the judge to state that he is “protected from copyright infringement claims.”

The Barack Obama photograph used in the Fairey poster was taken by freelance photographer, Mannie Garcia for The Associated Press in 2006. The A.P. recently demanded a portion of any money made from the image and now the artist has decided to the let a federal judge figure out if the matter is a copyright infringement.

A lawyer for Fairey, Anthony T. Falzone said the Garcia photograph was transformed into a “stunning, abstracted and idealized visual image that created powerful new meaning and conveys a radically different message.”

NY Times has more on the copyright lawsuit. Brian over at MyArtSpace blog has a more in depth post on the Fairey case too.

Shepard Fairey is also currently showing at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston.
