While it's important to worry about quality and presentation etc, not worrying about whether the work is being copied or stolen does not prevent the work from being copied or stolen. i think that is a good question.

]]> Comment on Is it best to let my art speak for itself? by KYA http://www.artshotline.com/?p=19&cpage=1#comment-155 KYA Sun, 12 Jul 2009 17:33:51 +0000 http://www.artshotline.com/?p=19#comment-155 Comparing art with theatre is invalid. Theatre is supposed to represent, expose, explain, & dialogue. A work of art already represents, exposes, explains and dialogues. The only thing conceptualizing does is put an unnecessary coat of verbosity into the work of art, and in so doing robs the viewer of her/his own perceptions, suffusing them with worthless wordiness. I understand this "explanation" of the art is wanted by the art world, and the viewers. If one coats the art with explanation, it is still an unwanted and unnecessary coat.

This is true. I believe one should worry about their work and the quality of the presentation, not whether the work will be copied or stolen. Thanks for this site, I love the info and your take.
