Tonights FotoChat we talk Copyrights with Carolyn E. Wright, a/k/a the Photo Attorney®.

As many of you know Todd Walker and I have restarted the tweetchat ArtPhotoChat with the shorter tag #FotoChat. Tonight, Tuesday July 16th at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST we are excited to welcome Carolyn E. Wright, a/k/a the Photo Attorney® (twitter: @PhotoAttorney) as our guest to talk about copyright and fair use.

Here are a few of the cases that are bouncing around the blog-o-sphere, I'm linking you to an article that I think sums up a lot of the debate via A Photo Editor - take a look:

Artist Janine “Jah Jah” Gordon's images vs. photographer Ryan McGinley's. (article)

Photographer Jay Maisel vs.internet entrepreneur Andy Baio with his lo-fi 8-bit tribute to Miles Davis’ "Kind of Blue" called "Kind of Bloop."

Patrick Cariou’s Yes Rasta book vs. Richard Prince's Canal Zone exhibit at the Gagosian gallery (article)
