- Untitled May 17, 2024Thinking of that time that Degas painted the actress Ellen Andree sitting and looking pensive in a cafe, and Monet saw Degas' painting and decided to find the same actress and get her to pose in the same cafe so he could do his own version.
- Untitled May 17, 2024Copyright claims often go too far, crushing free speech and not allowing for the way artists are influenced by, repurpose, and even coincidentally echo, other art. Not this time, though! Jeff Dieschburg is a straight-up tracer who adds NOTHING original when he paints his copies of photos. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

I hope you don’t get tear gassed for taking those pictures. The “war on terrorism” has intimidated me pretty effectively. I’m not trying to be snarky here. This is a serious question–when the government is putting so much effort into scaring people away from speaking out and bearing witness to oppression, when the mass media is so emphatic about the idea that *nobody cares* about this stuff, why aren’t you scared to go anywhere near a protest?
And I guess nothing even slightly like this was set up for the Democratic convention, was it? Was it now?
Oh come on, this isn’t about the Republicans. This is politics as usual.
What’s the white stuff on their hips? Rope? And if so, why are they all carrying rope?
I also noticed the “new” clubs.
Riot cops used to hold police batons, which were lethal as hell in the right/wrong hands. But they were also the same batons that ordinary cops carried around.
These guys look like they are just waiting to beat the shit out of someone with a big club.
But Mommm! The Democrats use jackbooted thugs to seal themselves off from the outside world! That makes it okay for me to do it too!
Ziptie handcuffs. In case anyone wants to, you know, exercise their rights of free speech or public assembly.
Plastic handcuffs, in case they have to handcuff a million people each.
