I also love to write about the quilts I see at shows, and duly credit the makers. I get that people don't want their quilts copied, but we've become a little paranoid about having them photographed. I think the point will come when we can no longer control that. Maybe we're already there! And I enjoy so much going back over my photographs from previous shows, and it brings back all the memories and feelings so clearly. So important to me, and I suspect, to you as well.Kitchener Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12512045004228156470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-22993561342417296262013-10-30T08:34:54.242-04:002013-10-30T08:34:54.242-04:00KATHY!

Photos make the experience happen multiple times, especially if one spends hours in a museum. No one can possibly remember it all. <br /><br />I do have to laugh at the drive-by documenters. There is a joy in experiencing art in the moment that they will never have, as they never get out from behind the lens. What a funny rectangular world they inhabit.

Once a piece is displayed in public or even on the internet you completely lose control of where its images appear, and as long as they are credited and not mis-attributed or stolen, that is as it should be.

Through the lens of your camera I have been exposed to far more art then I would have been left to my own adventures.

The pushers and flashers irritate me no end, but I think that so much can be learned from a glimpse of a work on someone's blog, and from their comments. It is far from a theft of copyright - I think that on the whole it enhances understanding.Olga Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10554469124546960971noreply@blogger.com
