Read about the Art of Creating Intellectual Property @ Aura Art

ArtIP - Art of creating Intellectual Property (IP)

Recognition of Intellectual Property ("IP") rights is the foundation on which the entire Fine Art Industry rests. Yet there seems to be limited understanding of IP rights in general and copyright framework in particular among all stakeholders of the Indian Art Industry. Keeping the above in perspective, Aura Art Development Pvt Ltd ("AADPL") is delighted to work closely with Advocate Jamshed Mistry, Founder, International Legal Alliance ("ILA") to put together this publication ArtIP - Art of creating Intellectual Property. This publication broadly lays down the basic legal framework in India, pertaining to Intellectual Property in Fine Art and highlights some of the practical issues - to serve as a backdrop for further industry-wide deliberations on the subject. It was released earlier this month in Delhi and Mumbai, at the following events: At The Art Enclave in Index Fairs 2019, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi on August 2, 2019 at the hands of Shri Adwaita Gadanayak, Director-General, National Gallery of Modern Art; Ar Gurpreet Singh, Director, Aakar Design Consultants Pvt Ltd; Founders of AADPL and ILA; artists and gallerists. At India Business Group (IBG) event, Tote on the turf, Mahalaxmi Racecourse, Mumbai on August 7, 2019 by Mr Vikash Mittersain, Founder & President IBG; Dr Pushpinder Bhatia, Principal, Guru Nanak College of Arts, Science & Commerce; Mr Manoj Agarwal, Director, Shubhalakshmi Polyesters Ltd; Mr Harjeet S Anand; Mr Dilip Mehta; Mr Sangeet Kumar; Artist Rashmi Pitre; Adv Dimple Merchant; Founders of AADPL and ILA; Ms Pranjulaa Singh (contributor to publication) and many other dignitaries and friends. We express our gratitude to Advocate Laxmi Maria Jenkins, LMJ Law Practice (part of the ILA Network) for significant contribution to this publication. This publication is prepared for educational purposes and not as advice. Legal advice may be sought for specific issues. Nonetheless, we will be pleased to facilitate further deliberation on this subject and see how the Art Collection Management Tool, developed as part of Art Infrastructure Solutions, could be leveraged.

Wegner, Siv Cedering art for Woodstock, Artists for Peace and the Environment 

“Artists for Peace and the Environment”  debuted in summer of ’99 in Rome, NY at the reunion festival for Woodstock. Artists works were collected with the support and agreement of Michael Lang and Robert Kennedy Jr. “Not your parents Woodstock” was the slogan of the event. While curating the collection, I titled the exhibit “Artists for Peace and the Environment.” Calls for peace were not significant that year, peace accords and been signed for Bosnia. The luster of environmental causes was waning somewhat as the glamor of the rally to save the Amazon forest had died out. The Columbine High School massacre lent a picture of an emerging profile of youth in America. Youth and violence. Artists for Peace and the Environment got lost in the shuffle of the violence which surrounded the third Woodstock event. Still, with the help and support of many, I was able to collect what I have called the  Woodstock ’99 Collection. The rising tide of warmth, peace, love and rock and roll of the original Woodstock Nation and all of the hallmark signature anthems were never associated with ’99.

IN an effort to capture the attention to change environmental perceptions the displayed  Graffiti artist Anthony Austang, sculptors Steve Zaluski, and Bob Wade, painter/musicians known and unknown contributed to “Artists for Peace and the Environment”. Capitalizing the importance of peace, love, rock, and roll and Mother Earth these images, new forms of descriptive metaphor addressed the immense magnitude of the issues facing each person then and now. Peace and the Environment are timeless canvases, messages form a simple fundamental universal language, as a collection. The messages that “Now—more than ever—Peace and the Environment go hand in hand.

Montclair Art Museum, September 14-2019 through June 21, 2020 Virgil Ortiz,: Odyssey of the Venutian Soldiers.

MONTCLAIR ART MUSEUM PRESENTS VIRGIL ORTIZ: ODYSSEY OF THE VENUTIAN SOLDIERS September 14, 2019 – June 21, 2020 New Exhibition Engages Young Art Fans as Native History Meets Sci-Fi Fantasy Superheroes MONTCLAIR, NJ – Virgil Ortiz: Odyssey of the Venutian Soldiers, a new exhibition at the Montclair Art Museum (MAM), showcases a striking light-infused wall mural and dramatic videos created by famed Pueblo artist, Virgil Ortiz. A number of Oritz’s exquisite ceramic vessels and figurines, on which the artist painted comic-book and sci-fi imagery that shows a heavy influence of contemporary art, are also on view. The exhibition is open at MAM September 14, 2019 through June 21, 2020.  Through his work, the past and future come alive as Ortiz tells the story of the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, an important Native historical event, and blends it with a series of sci-fi fantasy stories that include a cast of imaginary characters. For the exhibition at MAM, Ortiz designed a mural that features a parade of Venutian Soldiers, sci-fi superheroes living in the year 2180 (500 years after the Pueblo Revolt) possessing extraordinary strength and magical powers. They are faced with the devastation of their environment by their enemies and march along wearing gas masks and oxygen tanks in search of a new homeland where they can preserve a traditional Pueblo way of life. At the forefront of a contemporary era of Native art that is sweeping the country, Virgil Ortiz (b.1969), works in a wide variety of mediums: ceramics, graphic art, blown glass, painting, photography, multimedia, and high fashion. Born at Cochiti Pueblo, located between Santa Fe and Albuquerque, New Mexico, Ortiz still lives and works in Cochiti. He hails from a celebrated family of potters, and was taught the art at a young age by his famed grandmother and mother. The family was involved in all the essential activities of pottery making: digging local clays, gathering wild spinach plants used for painting pottery with black designs, and Native outdoor firing techniques. Ortiz continues the tradition of creating figurative pottery that had for some time died out. After years of experimentation, Ortiz has moved past his early static figures to those showing action. His figurative forms have also grown in size as he has learned how to create much larger ones that are stable and structurally sound. Combining with his life-long passion for science fiction (he credits seeing Star Wars at an early age), his pottery figurines are players in his futuristic stories. His narrative transports visitors back more than 300 years to the 1680 Pueblo Revolt and then speeds forward through time to the year 2180. Ortiz introduces superhero characters such as the Venutian Soldiers, Tahu and her army of Blind Archers and Aeronauts, who all help the historical leaders of the 1680 Pueblo Revolt fight once again against the Castilian army. His work is very popular with younger audiences who share his love of fantasy characters, helping to build new supporters of the arts. “My mission of nearly two decades has been to create a narrative of the revolt utilizing the various mediums in which I work,” said Ortiz. “I want to make it interesting and relevant to the next generation. I want them to understand our history, how we survived genocide, and how our ancestors kept our art traditions and ceremonies intact.” The exhibition’s presentation at the Montclair Art Museum is coordinated by Pamela Jardine, MAM guest curator. The Virgil Ortiz: Odyssey of the Venutian Soldiers exhibition is located in the Laurie Art Stairway and Rand Gallery. #fineartmagazine
