I am an artist. If I include a logo for a copyrighted brand (like Coca-cola) in a painting can I be sued?

I know copyright law is a big grey area, but I remember reading somewhere that after Warhol did his Campbell soup cans, Campbells actually tried to sue but dropped the lawsuit after all the publicity they got from his work. So because of it I read that if trademarks are used in artwork for art's sake then it's Ok. Now is this true?

Coca-Cola is a registered trademark of the Coca-Cola Company. Any use of the company's trademark must received prior written approval from the company. You should contact the Coca-Cola Company in writing - their address is The Coca-Cola Company, P.O. Box 1734, Atlanta, Georgia 30301. (See additional legalese from Coca-Cola's website cited in the source below)

The Coca-Cola Company has commissioned several artists over the years to produce artwork for advertising and other branding purposes. The list includes: Haddon Sundblom, Norman Rockwell, N.C. Wyeth.

The Coca-Cola Company also has a licensing program. Jim Harrison, an artist based in Denmark, South Carolina, has been a licensee with Coca-Cola since 1995. You can see the calendars and other artwork that featured Coca-Cola logo on his website (cited below) and you can purchase them from bookstores as well as amazon.com

If you create an artwork strictly for personal enjoyment and not for commercial or for-profit purposes, then the Coca-Cola Company will probably be okay with that, but you should contact the company to be sure.

Pottery Lidded

What is this piece of pottery used for??

I have a ceramic pottery pot that was hand made. It has a tube that comes up in the middle of the pot (similar to an angel food cake pan) and also a lid. Is this for steaming vegetables in the oven? Or does anyone know what this pot is utilized for?

I think that is used for fat free cooking veges in the oven,to bake or steam. margaret

Tapestry Art - Verdure Tapestries

Tapestries were produced in Europe from around the twelfth century, when it is believed, the art of weaving was introduced from the East. It is thought some small scale Tapestries may have been produced during Medieval times. However, it was actually towards the end of this period, and throughout the Renaissance, when Tapestry Art production reached a pinnacle. From the fourteenth to the seventeenth century, France and the Low Countries would create some of the most incredible Tapestry Art ever produced. Up until 'The Hundred Year War' from 1337 to 1453, Paris was considered the centre of production for Tapestry Art in Europe. However, as war raged in Europe, many weavers left the France and moved North, primarily to Holland and Belgium. Many Tapestries were destroyed, but after the war a new period of learning and development would begin.

The Renaissance marked an important revival of the Arts, and major design changes came about, within Tapestry Art. By the second half of the fifteenth century many workshops, especially in Northern France and the Southern Netherlands regions, were exporting Tapestries throughout Europe. By the end of the fifteenth century, the Brussels Tapestry workshops began to dominate production. Although some French, independent, Tapestry weavers did continue working, they could not match the sheer scale by which Brussels and the Netherlands were producing Tapestries. Once again, war would disrupt Tapestry production, as weavers were forced to relocate in Europe. Later, toward the end of the sixteenth century, Paris, once again, along with Munich and Delft would become the recognized 'European Centres' for Tapestry production.

It is not entirely certain where 'Verdure Tapestries' were first produced. However, it is known that by the sixteenth century, they had become a recognized Tapestry Art form. The word 'Verdure' is a derivative of the French word 'Vert', meaning green. Initially, 'Verdure Tapestries' were characterized by their green tones, complex foliage and flower motives. 'Verdure Tapestries' became regarded as works of art in their own right, yet were considered relatively inexpensive at the time. As their popularity rose, more expensive designs incorporating wildlife were produced. It is the more elaborately designed 'Verdure Tapestries' that we most often associate with the Verdure style today. For centuries 'Verdure Tapestries' remained highly popular, and were made on a huge scale for exportation. That was, until the arrival of wallpaper, which served as more economical way to decorate a room.

In recent years 'Verdure Tapestries' have seen a revival, and is a popular choice of Tapestry Art for the modern home. A 'Verdure Tapestry' can change a room, by creating a striking and impressive focal point. Something which cannot be matched by wallpaper alone. If you are looking for a classic example of Tapestry Art, the subtle earthy tones of 'Verdure Tapestries' can deliver that, whilst also being compatible with almost any style of décor. They are available is a range of sizes, which means you can enjoy their aesthetic beauty virtually anywhere, and within budget. 'Verdure Tapestries' are historically considered to be among some of the most famous Tapestries ever produced. Today they have been accurately recreated for you to enjoy in your own home.

'Verdure Tapestries' are highly stylized. However, you will find a good selection of themes to choose from. Fawn and Fauna, plus wonderful images of French Châteaux, classic gardens and scenic landscapes. The lush greenery depicted in 'Verdure Tapestries', along with the idyllic scenery cannot help but create a beautifully harmonious and natural focal point within a room. Peaceful, intricate, yet unobtrusive imagery which will complement and add to the ambience of your home. A Tapestry is an investment that will be there for generations to come. 'Verdure Tapestries' have always been admired by collectors and art enthusiasts alike. Today, these Tapestries are produced by some of the most respected Tapestry Art manufacturers in the world. Since the invention of the Jacquard Loom, and the development of computerized machinery, Tapestry Art has become an accessible commodity. Of course, you are by no means limited to 'Verdure Tapestries', there is an impressive variety of traditional and contemporary Tapestry Art available. 'Verdure Tapestries' appeal to many people. However, with such a huge selection of Tapestries available, you could never be short of inspiration for your home.

Weller

admin — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 12:26:24 +0000

Weller Pottery began production in 1872. Weller was founded by Samuel Weller. In 1895, Weller pottery purchased Lonhuda Pottery.

With the addition of Lonhuda, Weller began production of Louwelsa. Louwelsa would become one of Weller's most popular lines and ultimately included over 500 different shapes of vases and bowls.

They continued to produce high quality pottery into the 1930s including such lines as Sabrinian, Chase, Bonito, Geode, Raceme and Stellar.

By 1935, Weller pottery abandoned hand decoration and produced only molded pottery.

In early 1948 Weller pottery ceased production.
