Who makes and owns your work?
Arsta Folkets Hus, Stockholm
Multipart art project in Stockholm on sharing, distribution and intellectual property. The project has grown out of a year-long discussion held during the Open Content meetings which centred on ownership, distribution and forms of sharing within contemporary cultural and knowledge production.
Who owns the rights to artistic work in today's information-based economy? How can
one as an artist or producer of culture position oneself in relation to the existing
regimes of copyright and the distribution of material and non-material products?
The project Who Makes and Owns Your Work has grown out of a year-long discussion
held during the Open Content meetings which centred on ownership, distribution and
forms of sharing within contemporary cultural and knowledge production. Through
monthly meetings hosted by different organisations and a dedicated Wiki site
http://www.whomakesandownsyourwork.org the project has evolved to test conceptual
and political implications of openness foregrounding specific proposals made by a
loose network of artists and other cultural producers. The project was initiated in
the autumn of 2006 by Maria Lind and Robert Stasinski, Iaspis together with London
based artist Marysia Lewandowska currently a professor at Konstfack University
College of Arts, Crafts and Design and Stockholm based artists Goldin+Senneby.
