Research Handbook on Intellectual Property and Cultural Heritage
This important Research Handbook offers a comprehensive analysis of the intersections between intellectual property (IP) and cultural heritage law. It explores and compares how both have evolved and sometimes converged over time, how they increased tremendously in significance, as well as in economic value, despite the fact that the former mainly pertains to the private sphere, whilst the latter is considered a ‘common good’.
Political Graffiti in Critical Times
Whether aesthetically or politically inspired, graffiti is among the oldest forms of expression in human history, one that becomes especially significant during periods of social and political upheaval. With a particular focus on the demographic, ecological, and economic crises of today, this volume provides a wide-ranging exploration of urban space and visual protest. Assembling case studies that cover topics such as gentrification in Cyprus, the convulsions of post-independence East Timor, and opposition to Donald Trump in the American capital, it reveals the diverse ways in which street artists challenge existing social orders and reimagine urban landscapes.
Miss Charity
Charity est une fille. Une petite fille. Elle est comme tous les enfants : débordante de curiosité, assoiffée de contacts humains, de paroles et d’échanges, impatiente de créer et de participer à la vie du monde. Mais voilà, une petite fille de la bonne société anglaise des années 1880, ça doit se taire et ne pas trop se montrer, sauf à l’église, à la rigueur. Les adultes qui l’entourent ne font pas attention à elle, ses petites soeurs sont mortes. Alors Charity se réfugie au troisième étage de sa maison en compagnie de Tabitha, sa bonne. Pour ne pas devenir folle d’ennui, ou folle tout court, elle élève des souris dans la nursery, dresse un lapin, étudie des champignons au microscope, apprend Shakespeare par coeur et dessine inlassablement des corbeaux par temps de neige, avec l’espoir qu’un jour quelque chose va lui arriver...
Banksy
About this Book / Bristol born Banksy is usually categorized as a Street Artist, although his art, in content and form, transcends a narrow understanding of this term. This publication primarily deals with Banksy as a contemporary Urban Artist and his relationship with consumer culture. It examines Banksy not only in light of his illicit work on the street, but also in regard to his gallery exhibitions. The study highlights representative works of his art, pieces which demonstrate his versatility, but also stand for different periods of his oeuvre. This book presents the first academic study of Banksy's art in English; with a history and discussion of the terms Graffiti, Street Art and Urban...
Conflict Graffiti
"Graffiti is by nature a protean art. In movies, it is often the backdrop used to create a sense of danger and lawlessness. In bathroom stalls, it is the disembodied expression of gossip, lewdness, or confession. In protests, it is a resistive tool, visually displaying the cacophony of disparate voices and interests that come together to make up a movement. Every graffito has an unstable afterlife-fated to be added to, transformed, overlaid, photographed, reinterpreted, or painted over. In short, as this book artfully explains, graffiti makes for messy politics. It brings the unwieldiness of the crises it engages to the fore, giving shape to a conflict's evolving nature. The book closely exa...
