--Pift, small town, small town mentality here, there were two art galleries trying to cash in on passing tourists, closed down within a month of opening

--Jake Parker is cool, I love his work... I'd have to drop art in a local big city, here it'd probably get used to light someones cigarette -_-

--Art related scandal. Pride in profession and relevant to discussion. Might as well take down this entire forum if it's so pointless. Jean-Luc Godard had a broader idea of what it means for an artist to steal I'm sure. No one's going to jump on Andy Jones for using the Statue of David i his work. I also frown on dismissal.

--Ok cool. Well, then he got what was coming, and good thing. Talking about scandal is also pretty pointless, unless you are doing something to help people through it really.

--To be honest that kind of talk is beside the point. It's like saying prosecuting anyone is a bit harsh because they walk and talk just like any other guy.

--If Sano's work (and now name) is easily found out as derivative then that's on him.

--I follow news on facebook that brought up the designer being canned and a Japanese Illustrator just posted their new logo.

--No, I mean people get really really crusadey and start tarring everything with the same brush. I don't know what is behind that image you posted, or who posted it, but some of them are strange.

--The watch? Calvin Klein. Mainly there for facepalm value as it's so damn obvious.

--Ok sure, and if he gets picked up on that then great, and he isn't too bright if he is using copyrighted stuff barely unedited, but what about the watch, the hamburger, the pig?

--The special olympics he had modeled after the world trade center logo too.
27 Aug 09:36
--The bird was the exact same stamp. The joke is that he did them and thought he could do the same for the g d olympics.
27 Aug 09:33
--Some of those original vs alleged plagiarised versions are a bit of a joke though. Not similar at all. Oh wow, he used a bird and a watermelon...must be theft. and wtf with the hamburger and post it thing. There is a bit of a line here that sometimes gets crossed in the aims of a crusade

--They've dropped him and got a new logo now that is much more appropriate but how embarrassing...

--OOOh, I just read the whole drama about the Tokyo Olympics Logo. That designer is an asshat.
27 Aug 09:23
--Yep, I've meet too many asshats to be honest, even in the web design and graphic design side of things

--If you're privileged enough to be in a position to pursue art and make it your profession then good for you! No one's asking to donate your earnings to sponsor those that aren't. Just don't be an asshat.

--Because no matter how proficient an artist is, shitting all over the work of another means all loss of respect.
