Hi
That would be Glenn Brown. Here's a pretty good article by Simon Stokes that
includes images of both the original paperback and the painting derived from
it.

>Am pretty sure the same rules apply as with sonic arts. ie if it's

>If it's a big company that you are using art from then they will make
>themselves aware of you even if you're smalltime. For instance I
>remember when Psychic TV made a 12" single in 1987 called Superman.
>The title would have been ok but they used a little picture of
>Superman on the centre of the record. There were only 1000 copies
>and within just a few days of pressing a writ came through their
>front door from DC Comics saying that they would send Superman,
>Batman and Wonderwoman round if the records weren't disposed of.
>However they didn't want to witness or do the destruction themselves,
>they trusted PTV to do this like the responsible people that they
>were :)

>Am crap at remembering names, but last year one of the Turner Prize
>contenders was in controversy because they had copied a science
>fiction picture of someone else and were taken to court over it.
>What made it interesting was that the person they had copied wasn't
>well known. If anyone can remember the artist's name then that would
>be helpful though, wouldn't it...

>Also I've no idea if at the other end of the scale any Pop Art was
>sued for literally reflecting culture - like Andy Warhol. Oh no, we
>are going to discuss Andy Warhol. Let's not discuss Andy Warhol.

>The main point is though, that I've found that so often even people
>who WANT to find your art for sale often can't find it so it's best
>to just get on with it really.

>>>I am fairly new to collage, and was just wondering were some of you
