Why Do Some People Have A Mythical Standard Of 'Newness' To Determine What Qualifies As Art?
from the what's-really-new? dept
In our recent discussion on the ruling against Richard Prince, saying that his appropriation art is infringing and should be destroyed, I'm seeing a somewhat disturbing response from people who disagree with Prince: they seem to have some mythological idea that for any artwork to matter, it must somehow be "new." I have trouble with this standard for a few separate reasons:What determines what is really new?
If you look at the history of music, for example, things like the invention of soul music really involved a very close copy of works that had come before. There was very little new. Ditto with all kinds of rock music. Led Zeppelin is famous for nearly every famous song they had being a near direct copy from someone else. The changes made were minor, but created massive successes -- showing that people seemed to really like these "copies," even if there was very little new in them. It seems, to me, that clearly something important was "new" in that people liked the copies much more than the originals.
One of the complaints in the discussion on Prince's work is that he "didn't spend much time" in creating his artwork, since he basically started with Cariou's work, tinted it, and added a few minor adjustments. Perhaps that's true, but it seems likely that he spent more time than Cariou did in taking the photograph in the first place. I'm not -- as some accused -- arguing that Cariou's work isn't art. Quite the opposite. I'm saying that the time involved is not a statement of what is and what is not artwork either. After all, Carious quite literally "copied" the scene that he photographed. He gets a copyright on it because of a few creative choices, but these are minor: where to position himself, how to frame the photograph etc. But are those really all that different from Prince's decisions of "how to tint, what to change, what to add?" I can't see how one is art and the other is a copy. It seems like both are art to me, even if I'm not personally impressed by Prince's work.
Does it really matter if the copy isn't really new?
And here's the bigger point. If people really enjoy those works, why are we so upset that they're copies with minor changes? Ray Charles had success with "I've Got a Woman," despite it really being the same basic song as the Harold Bailey Gospel Singers, called "I've Got a Savior," with just moderately changed lyrics, and a little more pizazz in the music. Led Zeppelin's most classic hit, "Stairway to Heaven," is a pretty close copy the song "Taurus," by Spirit. And Richard Prince's paintings involve just moderate changes to Patrick Cariou's photographs. And, yet, in all three cases, the markets seemed to value the latter versions more. Doesn't that suggest that, even if these newer works are "mostly" copies, that they provide significant value in the marketplace?
Why does it matter that they're not "new" by some subjective standard?
If the world really felt that there was something fundamentally wrong with these copies with minor changes, then wouldn't they have rejected the market for them? Would the world have been a better place if we didn't have "I've Got a Woman," but were just left with "I've Got a Savior," a song so hard to find these days that James Boyle could only find a single copy in existence when he wrote his book which told the story of the song?
Isn't the world actually better off that we have these "copies with marginal changes"? Why do people feel the need to complain about them?

Remove the "borrowed" parts of the new work.

Re: Re: Re:
Yes, it's parody. But what we are discussing here is if it is "new" enough to be considered original. Given the fact that 90% of the show revolves around jokes like "Hey, it's just like time when I was in [well known town or famous landmark] and [famous person] did [something remotely funny].". Take the side references and what do you have? 1 minute of show (in a good episode).

Re: Re: Re: Re:
But more importantly, why can references alone not be art? If someone combines countless pop culture references in a way that tonnes of people enjoy and find hilarious, then they did a creative job, and as far as I'm concerned it counts as art. If Family Guy makes a dumb joke about Casablanca and everyone laughs, then they added value - after all, while those same viewers could go watch Casablanca, they wouldn't find it hilarious.

Re:
Interesting thought idea. So what granularity to you apply? Take music; how many chord combinations? How many songs consist of a few bars "stolen" from various sources? How many lyrics (lines, 1/2 lines, key prhases), borrowed from other songs, poetry, literature? If the granularity is words I'm pretty sure most of them have been used before (though to be fair I can't remember the use of "floccinaucinihilipilification" in any song.. perhaps there's an opportunity there?).
Point is, unless you set the granularity at "most of the song", then the aswer to your implied question applied to music is "not a lot" for any case. In the case of "art" like Prince, *shrug* would it have made a difference if he'd taken the extra 10 minutes to re-shoot a similar photo of his own in the same pose, and perhaps pasted the original guy's body over it too? If so, why's that different?
Where's the line? Who gets to say what the magic number of "sameness" is? Who gets to say what ganularity constitutes a "copied element"? I think Prince's picture sucks too, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's not art or as "original" as anything else.
[ link to this | view in chronology ]
A whole new performance of music, even if it is exactly the same song performed by different people, is "new". The Red Hot Chili Peppers covering a Stevie Wonder song was "new", even if the song was old. A member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers playing a Stevie Wonder record for a crowd would not be "new". The difference is obvious.
Prince's work was neither new nor transformative, it was just a pure copy with a couple of cutouts on it. The vast majority of the "art" was just someone else's product with a very minor alteration. It would be akin to that RHCP member playing the Stevie Wonder song and yelling "COW!!!" once in the middle if it, and claiming the whole work as "new" and "art", which it is neither. Now, if the band performed the song live and added "COW" in the middle of it, it would be a performance and therefore "art" of some sort, no matter how original or unoriginal the "cow" part was.
I think you are just playing at trying to parallel two things that don't line up well, and trying to make excused for horrible "remix" culture that created little if anything new.

Remixing involves taking something someone made (like the UT engine or some guy's song) and bending, shaping and slamming it until it becomes something new that you like.
Some people are content with changing a texture or two (or sticking "Cow" into the middle of the song), while others take things to the extreme and change everything.
But, is it "art"? Is it "new"? It is not up to us to decide. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I, for one, very much enjoy many mods created for many games. Remixes aren't evil: BAD remixes are.
PS: There is just one thing I don't enjoy: plagiarism. If you take someone's work and changes it (or present it as is), give some credit. It's just a matter of good manners.

Re: Re:
They could accomplish a similar result by just playing the record, but only one of them involves a new performance, and one of them is just playing a recorded piece. Even in the quest for perfect duplication, a musician will always end up putting their own spin or own skill into the piece, presenting something that is every so slightly different. Further, they will have had to make the effort from start to finish to make that performance.
Now, here is what is key to Prince: the new performance is "art" in and of itself, but it does not free the performers from the rights of the original piece. That is to say that even as their new performance is art in and of itself, they are still obliged to pay for the rights to the original songs they are replicating, even as they play it themselves.
In the music business, there are various levels of licensing to cover just this sort of thing. The music industry is in fact very well organized to handle just this sort of thing, with standard contracts, methods, etc.
The art world doesn't appear to be as well organized, and for the most part artists do not appear to want their work "re-used". Outside of some photo licensing websites, there isn't much out there. Often these licenses do not permit any transformative use of the images, or restricts how they may be re-sold going forward.
Prince's main mistake is ignoring the concept that the rights holder controls their work.
If you modify the Mona Lisa, while you have "added" something, the underlying work is not yours. You didn't bring much to the table.

Re: Re: Re:
Let's get this straight. You were arguing that Prince's work isn't art, but covering music is. You then point to the royalty system as justification for cover music being OK, completely departing from the issue of whether it's art or not.
You then go on to suggest that the main issue is that prince is ignoring the copyright holders right to control their work. If that is the main issue then why don't cover bands have to ask permission for every song they use? I don't see where the concept of control enters into it as royalties don't afford control, just money.
I'm really struggling to spot a coherent argument there. You seem to be heading in three directions at once.

Re: Re: Re: Re:
No, don't be dense.
Covering music requires performance, and the performance creates "art" in some sense. It would be in the same manner as an actor playing Hamlet. The story doesn't change, but each performance is art in itself. The artist (performer) can claim the work (performance) as his own.
Prince? If it was acting, it would be like playing a DVD of hamlet, and for 1 minute, standing in front of the screen saying "I am hamlet", and then claiming the entire performance on the DVD as his own. He took someone else's performance (the photograph) and added very little to it. There is no performance here.
I don't see where the concept of control enters into it as royalties don't afford control, just money.
Actually, royalties are the way of paying for ceded control. It is the contractual fulfillment, the "valuable consideration" for the rights granted. It is a contract.
I'm really struggling to spot a coherent argument there. You seem to be heading in three directions at once.
perhaps you should read more slowly. Mike is trying to compare to music, but the comparison isn't fair because there is a performance component that isn't present in copying photographs. 10 musicians can play the same song, and each one is a unique performance (and the performance can be copyright, even if they underlying music rights belongs to another). So Mike's comparison isn't exactly equal. Plus each of Mike's examples are music which is substantially different in performance than the originals cited, with much added, removed, and changed in composition and performance.
If Prince has sought permission, I still don't think his "work" qualifies as art, but that would be for others to determine. But even to an untrained eye, you can see that his "work" is mostly a copy of the other work, with no variation in presentation or performance. It isn't trans formative, it isn't a personal interpretation, it is a copy. The "art" question is moot at that point.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:
Doesn't make sense. I can see this analogy being easier to understand when thinking about a painting, every brush stroke is unique to the hand making it, but that doesn't invalidate the argument when dealing with digital art.
btw - LOVE the andy warhol example. Does that count? I mean really, it's just a "copy" of a cambells soup can? Where's the art?
Just because YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND IT, doesn't mean it's not art. (personally I never got the toilet, but it still managed to be art).

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:
What are you referring to? You don't appear to have refuted my quoted statement. In fact, you seem to be explaining why you don't believe Prince's work is art.
"Actually, royalties are the way of paying for ceded control"
From Wikipedia (emphasis mine): "Since the Copyright Act of 1909, in the United States there has been a right to record a version of someone else's tune, whether of music alone or of music and lyrics.[6] A license can be specifically negotiated between representatives of the interpreting artist and the copyright holder, or recording of published tunes can fall under a mechanical license whereby the recording artist pays a standard royalty to the original author/copyright holder through an organization such as the Harry Fox Agency, and is safe under copyright law even if they do not have any permission from the original author."
Maybe if the artist was alive in 1909 then you might argue that they ceded control.
"Mike is trying to compare to music, but the comparison isn't fair because there is a performance component that isn't present in copying photographs"
If there is a performance component to taking a photograph then there is a comparable component to sticking a Hitler moustache on a photograph. Both are taking what is already there and making choices about how to present them. Arguably, taking a photograph doesn't even add anything to the subject of the photograph, it is reliant solely on composition of the shot for expression.
"10 musicians can play the same song, and each one is a unique performance"
10 artists can stick things on a photograph, and each one is a unique performance.
"Plus each of Mike's examples are music which is substantially different in performance than the originals cited, with much added, removed, and changed in composition and performance."
But that isn't a requirement, is it? A musician can choose to recreate another performance of a song to the best accuracy of their ability.
'But even to an untrained eye, you can see that his "work" is mostly a copy of the other work, with no variation in presentation or performance.'
Unless you count the performance of sticking bits on, which vary the presentation somewhat.
"It isn't trans formative"
Except where it is.
"it isn't a personal interpretation"
Except that it is.
"it is a copy"
Except where it isn't.

Re:
If the RHCP played a Stevie Wonder song and yelled "COW" in the middle of it, it would be art, if that was their intention. If they simply yelled "COW" because they were shocked to see a cow while they happened to be playing the song, then that would not be art. But if they intended to yell it, then it becomes art. It probably wouldn't be good art, but art doesn't need to be good to be art. Art can be downright terrible, lame, stupid, just plain bad. However, I could see the judicious use of a simple phrase yelled at a certain moment during a specific song as being quite funny or perhaps even thought provoking and thus that art could be good. Perhaps there is a place in Stevie Wonder's song where yelling COW would be good art.

I have to quibble with the photography statement
Sorry for the mild rant, its just that many people do not see photography as art like they do painting. To take a truly great photo can take as much time, effort and attention to detail as painting. After all, photography literally means drawing with light.

Re: I have to quibble with the photography statement
Wrassling a wolf-dog for anything it wants to keep is not something I'd happily do.
I was really pleased that I got the few good shots I did, though. Chance and luck at work.
I'm a painter, and even then, when seems all you do is plan or think about this or that process or element of it, sometimes it's just plain luck that makes it work out, a brain-dulling headcold, a tossed off comment, a stray thought before sleep, an inadvertent brush stroke - all of those have helped me to see beyond my own uber-concious view of what I was trying to accomplish (I wish it happened more often, heh).
It shocks and disgusts me that the judge ordered Prince's works destroyed...that is beyond the pale. No matter what he used to springboard, it's still work he did, his artist's hand is very much apparent. I can't help but wonder who wouldn't find that grotesque no matter what one thinks of the work itself.

Re: I have to quibble with the photography statement
You're not quibbling with me... you're agreeing with me. That's the point I'm making. Yes, there are lots of choices. Same with what Prince did. He had plenty of choices as well.
The point in brining up the "few minor choices" is to point out that people who think that other works are not art, but do think photography is art are being hypocritical.

You left something out . . .
First, this is an exaggeration: Some of their early songs contained lyrics and riffs from blues tunes. Second, and more important, in at least one case, they settled with Willie Dixon over taking lyrics to Dixon's "You Need Love" for their "Whole Lotta Love."
One could certainly argue about whether Zeppelin should have settled, or even been sued in the first place. But making it seem as though Zeppelin "borrowed" so much legally is sloppy, if not deceptive.

Art /vs. Infringent
I am an artist, but I don't think that anything in the name of art is right. My craft being "illegal" doesn't stop me from creating anything because legal acceptance is not an incentive to create for me. In the same vein, threat of legal recourse doesn't serve as a disincentive, either (In fact, it being illegal gives me a little thrill and encourages me). When some of my work came under fire for its infringent nature, and I have been the recipient of C&D letters, I removed it from "the public" and moved on. While art may have a place in sparking new thoughts and ideas that might affect policy change, I don't think that laws should be written specifically to accommodate artforms. It's not an artist's place to dictate legal policy. I think it's nonsense, and artistically dubious to request policy change to alleviate my personal responsibility to the artists that came before me. That's for legal scholars and lawyers; I have art to make.
By the same token of asking whether judges should be allowed to dictate what is art, you must ask, "Should artists be allowed to dictate what's legal?"
The idea of appropriation reaches far beyond the realm of the arts. We shouldn't only consider a particular law in the vacuum of its effect on art. And a small--though quite lucrative--corner of the art world at that.
P.S. However, requiring the destruction of the works is incredibly awful. Almost unforgivably so. I hope the plaintiff and defendant can figure out a more beneficial arrangement. Hell, just pay the original photographer, surely the art is more important than the money?

Art...
This is the problem here - since we're talking about trying to judge a definition by how it is applied, which, by its very nature is PURELY subjective!
It is therefore up to an individual to apply such a definition by themselves, and not be dictated to by anyone else. I'm sure that if society didn't agree with any individuals opinion then they'd have ways and means of making it known without having to involve the law, which can't AFFORD to be so subjective!
The ONLY objective standard is a pure copy of any work of art - and so that is all the law itself can defend - (but even then, it may not be in societies interests to do so) - anything else and society as a whole is then being dictated to by someone else's standards - at which point, society will ignore it and just work round it anyway, as it always does - which is what's happening.

Valve
I bring you, Team Fortress 2
A little background, it was a game that was 9 years in the making. The fact remains that it was considered vaporware for the longest, possibly only Duke Nukem beating it out for the title. It started as a military shooter akin to now Call of Duty or Battlefield. However, the creators decided to take a few turns and make a more comedic game that couldn't be taken all too seriously. They upped the fun, downplayed the seriousness and it paid off.
To bring the mood back, the creators decided to base their artwork off of 1930s impressionistic art to make a rather unique interpretation. Link
Team Fortress 2 incorporates the nationalism, the industrial and farmland themes, and the efficiency of Precisionist work within its architecture.
Going even further, you can look at the artwork of JC Leyendecker and see the use of warm to cool shifts to result in cooler colors instead of rich blacks. Link
Yes, Norman Rockwell was a great inspiration but it was Leyendecker's style that helped with the characters and helping to differentiate them for easy references in a game.
What is very interesting, is the story of TF2, which is very unique. What people don't seem to understand is that the entire story is told outside of the game, but helps to influence it inside.
I will strongly recommend looking at all three videos linked. Like VirtuallyReality says in the last piece:
"Narrative doesn't have to be deep to be meaningful, and a game doesn't have to be serious to be cultural"
Perhaps, the same can be said of art.
