This accessible and innovative book examines to what extent
copyright protects a range of subjects which are engaged in the
creation and management of literary and artistic works, and how
such subjects use copyright to protect their interests. Offering a
complementary analysis, The Subjects of Literary and Artistic
Copyright explores how copyright regulates the production and
management of literature and art. The book examines the creators of
literature and art, as well as market operators such as publishers
and "managers" including museums, galleries, and universities. The
perspectives offered cover a diverse range of subjects, and
confront the regular contradictions and conflicts that occur within
literary and artistic copyright interests. The chapters illustrate,
via historical and empirical analysis, that established practices
and traditional approaches to the management of copyright need to
be revisited, in order to be more aligned with current social and
technological frameworks. Providing a starting point for future
research paths on copyright practices in art and literature, this
insightful book will be of interest to legal academics looking to
expand their knowledge of literary and artistic copyright. Law
professionals with interests in intellectual property and art law
will also benefit from its novel approach.
It is illustrated in a fresh and modern way with a touch of
abstract and so should appeal to a wider audience. With hints of
social and human psychology, spirituality combinded with creativity
- it just scratches each issue on the surface. The book doesn't
impose any strong views or lengthy "deep" writing to bore, but is
says enough - acting as a catalyst to encourage deeper thought,
reflection and discussion. "Themes Of Life.... A simple but
Spiritual, Creative and Psychological approach to tackling some key
issues which we face, In Human relationships & in Society
today"
Drawn to Life is a two-volume collection of the legendary lectures
of long-time Disney animator Walt Stanchfield. For over 20 years,
Walt mentored a new generation of animators at the Walt Disney
Studios and influenced such talented artists such as Tim Burton,
Brad Bird, Glen Keane, and Andreas Deja. His writing and drawings
have become must-have lessons for fine artists, film professionals,
animators, and students looking for inspiration and essential
training in drawing and the art of animation. Written by Walt
Stanchfield (1919–2000), who began work for the Walt Disney
Studios in the 1950s. His work can be seen in films such as
Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, 101 Dalmatians, and Peter Pan.
Edited by Disney Legend and Oscar®-nominated producer Don Hahn,
whose credits include the classic Beauty and the Beast, The Lion
King, and Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Artist Michael Lawrence has followed his own passions: dance,
theatre, poetry and music transcribing his feelings into
exhuberant, colorful, tender reflections. Michael has exhibited his
paintings and sculptures in numerous countries and is widely
collected. Film director Oliver Stone, author Ray Bradbury and
movie star Kirk Douglas are amongst the collectors who own his
work. The son of a Hollywood actor and a screenwriter, Michael grew
up alongside Jim Morrison and numerous tales of his relationships
with the rich and famous - Andy Warhol, Timothy Leary, Leonard
Cohen, John Cage to name just a few - along with his painting and
scupltures fill this wonderful autobiography. Dedicated to Charles
Chaplin, Loaded Brush is 415 pages featuring over 150 images
details a fascinating and memorable life in art.
When The Time Comes To Leave, Just Walk Away Quietly And Don't Make
A Fuss!
My Voyage in Art includes 197 colour images of paintings,
watercolours, sculptures and people over a 60 year period
accompanied by a detailed essay. Encounters with Roy Lichtenstein,
Jim Morrison, Andy Warhol and others illuminate.
The work of counterculture artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster, whose
art is a complex punk-rock take on modern consumer culture.
Enormous neon signs, intricate silhouette portraits constructed of
trash heaps, and a work titled Instant Gratification: British
artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster thrive on the thrills of
illumination, love, language, shadows, garbage, and cash. "British
Rubbish" showcases their work in all its splashy glory. Their art
evokes both gaudy Vegas culture and down-and-dirty punk rock: a
combination of cynical extravagance and a defiant, rebellious
sensibility. Extravagant, irreverent, sometimes coarse, and always
sharply clever, "British Rubbish" is both a paean to and sly
denunciation of conspicuous consumption.
Who was ultimately responsible for sentencing Jesus to death on
the cross? Can we ever be good enough for God? Do all "religious"
people go to heaven?
In "Who Put Jesus on the Cross?" A.W. Tozer examines some of the
most difficult questions of the Christian faith. His indictment of
lackluster belief forms the cornerstone of his appeal as he asks
the reader what it really costs to be a Christian.
Tozer inspires conviction that will have you digging deep within
your heart to newly realize the meaning of Christ's death and
resurrection and discover the "Word of God as the foundation of our
peace and rest."

key if you can't manage to solve the mazes. So, relax and embrace
your gloomy nature with Grumpy Cat's NOT-to-Dot Book and maybe-just
maybe-you'll be able to crack a smile once in awhile.
Featuring international contributions from leading and emerging
scholars, this innovative Research Handbook presents a panoramic
view of how law sees visual art, and how visual art sees law. It
resists the conventional approach to art and law as inherently
dissonant - one a discipline preoccupied with rationality,
certainty and objectivity; the other a creative enterprise
ensconced in the imaginary and inviting multiple, unique and
subjective interpretations. Blending these two distinct
disciplines, this unique Research Handbook bridges the gap between
art and law. This highly original Research Handbook provides
stimulating and provocative discussions that bring together
multiple perspectives on how art and law relate to each other in
all of their various manifestations, across diverse legal regimes,
fields, contexts, and times. With the objective of starting an
interdisciplinary dialogue on visual art and the law, this Research
Handbook reflects the varied voices of lawyers, artists,
criminologists and curators, and engages with broad notions of the
two fields, exploring established themes alongside new areas and
unfamiliar questions. Wide-ranging and accessible, the Research
Handbook on Art and Law will be of interest to law students and
scholars engaged with the fields of law and the visual arts, as
well as copyright lawyers, art historians and socio-legal scholars.
