Certainly a copyrighted sculpture, and there is no freedom of panorama to photograph sculptures in the U.S., where this was apparently taken. Sculpture is too prominent in the picture for a de minimis argument. So unless I'm missing something, this should be deleted. Jmabel ! talk 01:26, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

migrate to en:wikipedia "non-free 3D art" Slowking4 (talk) 17:03, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No problem with that. Do any of the other wikis that currently use this accept a similar rationale, so we can migrate to those, too? - Jmabel ! talk 22:16, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According the the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO):

In some countries, you don’t need permission to photograph certain artistic works that are permanently displayed in a public place (for example, in a park or on the street). You can also publish and commercialize the photograph without infringing copyright.

However, this exception applies only:

   To certain types of works: usually, only to three-dimensional works, such as sculptures and craft. So, you may still need prior permission to take a photo of a painting or a mural in a public place;
   If the work is displayed in public: to photograph a sculpture in a private house, a permission will usually be required; and
   If the work is displayed in public permanently: if you want to photograph a sculpture which is only temporarily sited in a public place, you would usually need permission.

This is a public-financed sculpture sitting on public space, therefore I do believe this photograph has every right to exist. Christopher Peterson User talk: Christopher Peterson/talk

right, since it is a single example in the US, you would have to take a photo, if it ever travels, wait until the artist croaks plus 70 years, or contact the artist for a licensed thumbnail.
i see the argument made installed before 1978; Keep as PD-US-no_notice. too late here.
however, if there are multiples, then we will be showing the examples of FoP countries, Germany, Netherlands; for example: [1]; [2]. the only sculpture that exists in commons is the sculpture of FoP countries. Slowking4 (talk) 22:38, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Right. I didn't nominate photos of his work that were in countries with FOP for sculpture. But this DR is about the particular photo, not about whether a photo of his work is possible. - Jmabel ! talk 01:30, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly a copyrighted sculpture, and there is no freedom of panorama to photograph sculptures in the U.S., where this was apparently taken. So unless I'm missing something, this should be deleted. Jmabel ! talk 01:24, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure on this one, but I think we should discuss. Certainly copyrighted sculptures, and there is no freedom of panorama to photograph sculptures in the U.S., where this was apparently taken. Is the emphasis enough on the garden rather than the sculptures for a de minimis argument? Jmabel ! talk 01:27, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm the photographer. I took this photo before I realized photos of sculptures were derivative works in the U.S. These are certainly copyrighted sculptures. I'm skeptical that a de minimis argument would apply, and I'm not enough other important information is conveyed (beyond the copyrighted sculptures) to make it worth keeping. It seems to only be used in galleries. – Quadell (talk) 02:05, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Um, I'm actually the photographer. I don't think it's really possible to take a picture of this space in which the sculptures are less prominent. The sculptures that are the most visible are also relatively simple geometric forms, which lessens the creative expression copied (even if we presume them still copyrighted) compared to if they were paintings or some comparably rich visual form. I certainly think this photo is no more problematic than an average photo of Times Square, in which the copyrighted billboard images would be far more prominent and copied to a greater extent. Postdlf (talk) 02:15, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: THe copyrighted sculptures are clearly the only reason this picture is in scope -- without them, it is silly. Therefore, they are not de minimis.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 16:50, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sculpture is too prominent in the picture for a de minimis argument. So unless I'm missing something, this should be deleted. Jmabel ! talk 01:30, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • question is there any reason to delete this but keep Calder's "sculpture" (they call it sculpture these days, don't they?) from the same location (and other stuff from Category:Storm King Art Center)? NVO (talk) 10:48, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm sure there are many images in that category that are a problem; please feel free to nominate them. I went through the Mark di Suvero images after someone raised the question on the Village Pump, and about a third of them looked problematic to me. It's a complicated interaction of copyright date, what country they are in, and (if they are in the US and before 1978) whether there was a copyright notice. - Jmabel ! talk 16:58, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it has no copyright notice and was installed before 1978.[3] It appears to have moved around the city a bunch but is now at a museum.  Keep as {{PD-US-no notice}} I think. Carl Lindberg (talk) 05:27, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Good, I'm glad to see a good basis for keeping. This slightly complicated rationale should be explained on the page, though; there was nothing there explaining why the work would be PD, just saying that the photo was released as PD. - Jmabel ! talk 08:05, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
keep or migrate to en:wikipedia as "non-free 3D art". Slowking4 (talk) 14:47, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Not currently used in any article in en-wiki, so the latter would appear not to be an option. But I think Carl is right (he usually is) and we can keep this one. - Jmabel ! talk 17:00, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure about France, Italy or Greece, but I'm sure that in Iranian copyright law there is nothing about freedom of panorama that means artistic and architectural works are automatically protected by copyright law and any photographs of them is considered as a derivative work.

No FOP for sculpture in US. Possibly OK on some basis, but if so that needs to be explained. Calder was usually careful with his copyrights, and his estate is pretty tight with those rights, so we should try to be very sure of any particular claim why this image would be OK.

Some(!) DW product packaging photos in Category:Chocolate

[edit]

DW: copyrighted design (especially the photo/drawing) of the packaging as a central part (not DM) of the photos. See Commons:Image_casebook#Product_packaging, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Almdudler2l033l.jpg and Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Soft drink bottles.

I looked at all talk pages, file pages and file histories but couldn't find justifications or claims why/that the photos shouldn't be DWs.

Note at the closing admin: Do not delete yourself - just close this DR, please: I will then try to make crops which do not show the drawing/photo on the packaging as a central part of the photo to keep most photos at least partly (will still be useful to illustrate the articles).

Avis de Jean Housen

[edit]

Je suis l'auteur de 3 des images incriminées :

que j'ai publiées sur Wikimedia Commons sur un total d'une soixantaine de photos réalisées au LAM lors d'une visite le 22 octobre 2011. Pas de problème quant à leur suppression si elles provoquent des difficultés légales. J'aimerais cependant pointer la nécessité de provoquer une certaine prise de conscience quant aux chemins absurdes où mènent ces concepts de propriété intellectuelles, quand il s'agit d'objets, bâtiments etc dans l'espace public, visibles par tous en tous moments, et qui sont simplement redupliqués et diffusés pour des usages d'informations non lucratifs.

Un trait d'humour : pour mettre fin à tous ces problèmes d'images, il serait plus simple que tout le monde circule voilé et que l'on demande à Christo d'emballer l'entierté de l'espace public, sur lequel il serait dès lors le seul à toucher des droits !!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeanhousen (talk • contribs)

C'est peut-être stupide mais la loi est comme ça (du moins pour l'instant) et Commons doit s'y soumettre. --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 17:09, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: I also deleted File:Jielbeaumadier gare lille-f pub lam lille 2010.jpg as it has clear creative elements.

Note to Jeanhousen -- You speak of "non-profit" (non lucratifs) use. In fact Commons requires that all images here be available for all commercial uses. An architect is as much entitled to profit from his work as a sculptor, painter, or writer -- the fact that buildings are more public does not make them any less creative. And, of course, you could ask your representatives to change the law -- perhaps not now, however, as they have other things on their minds -- th€ futur€ of th€ €?.

Permision from photographer missing. Photographer is not mentioned. Just "Quelle = eigene Urheber = eigene Fotosommlung" or "Quelle = eigene Fotosammlung Urheber = eigene Fotosammlung".

No FOP for sculpture in US, and date of piece is late enough that it is inherently copyrighted. Possibly OK on some basis, but if so that needs to be explained.

There's very low threshold of originality for American sculptures. Even simple sculptures depicting daily objects by Claes Oldenburg are copyrighted (evidenced by 2012 takedown action by the camp of Oldenburg against Wikimedia Foundation). See also Commons:Deletion requests/File:Dark Star Park.jpg. Even the permission field implies some uncertainty ("In October 2011 discussion, Jcb concluded, with reference to Serra's sculpture 'what we see in the picture is too simple to be an issue of copyright'..., however, this is just a conclusion by an administrator of this site, and should not be taken as legal advice. Reusers may want to consider whether they need further clearances.). This uncertainty runs counter to Commons:Project scope/Precautionary principle. As long as U.S. doesn't have FOP for all copyrighted public art, images with uncertain level of freeness because they bear sculptures or other public art cannot be permitted here.

 Keep. Simple geometrical figure, not copyrightable. US has quite high threshold of originality anyway. Taivo (talk) 13:14, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo: but not for public art. The TOO is mostly for things like logos and symbols, but U.S. courts tend to favor sculptors or their heirs over the general public (ex. Mr. Davidson and USPS case over the Vegas replica of the Lady Liberty). See the case of 2012 Oldenburg DMCA take down notice, some of Oldenburg's works are simple, yet their images here were also taken down due to that. Unless a great change will come in the U.S. that will finally favor the general public - the introduction of commercial FOP for all U.S. public art. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:23, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have not seen any evidence for that so far. Only link to dark star sculpture DR – the dark star sculpture is really more complex. Taivo (talk) 13:28, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Info @Taivo: found one passage at w:Copyright law of the United States#Useful articles. While it is intended for things like printed décors on useful articles (e.g. T-shirts), the court interpretation here seems to confirm the "relatively low threshold for pictorial, graphic, or sculptural features on useful articles to be eligible for copyright protection". It contrasts sharply with the US TOO for logos and trademark symbols. Thus there is low TOO for artistic objects like artistic works and artistic features on useful articles. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 15:54, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The passage applies only for useful objects. This sculpture is not a useful object. Taivo (talk) 16:13, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think if it's uploaded as public art in the US, and the US has no FOP, it's really not up to us to decide if it's art or not art, but to apply the COM:FOP for US and also COM:PRP. Both pictures are clearly labeled as art and the artist was cited. Ellin Beltz (talk) 04:26, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ellin Beltz: It's not up to us to decide if it's art or not art, but it is up to us to decide if it's (1) copyrightable, (2) de minimis. - Jmabel ! talk 14:47, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Jmabel: As far as I looked up that sculpture, it has some complex enough figures, though their colors are grey and hence finding them can be hard, but not really impossible, I don't see why Taivo's "not beyond TOO" claim can work, as for DM, this can only be and must be answered by the uploader @Tilted Spheres: (likely but not absolutely, the author of this image) even though inactive for 13 years. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 08:58, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Taivo, Ellin Beltz, Jmabel, and Liuxinyu970226: I found an article that relates to the Statue of Liberty replica case. Under "Three Lessons You Need to Take Away from USPS’s accidental copyright-infringement case.", the number two is "To be original, a work does not have to be completely unique:  Originality can be subtle and still be recognized. This is because most copyright laws only require some degree of creativity. The United States Supreme Court has once held that the required degree of creativity is “extremely low”. In Nigeria, an artistic, literary, or musical work enjoys copyright protection once sufficient effort is expended on it to give it an original character. This is irrespective of literary quality." This seems to imply the TOO for artistic works in the United States is very low (contrasting with high bar of TOO for things like logos).

Deleted: per nomination. Richard Serra (born 1938) is a minimalistic land artist. His work can be photographed with a free licence in countries with FOP, but not in US. This work can not be compared to a simple geometric form such as a simple logo. It is placed at a certain point and a certain orientation in the landscape, determined by the artist. The combination of design and location are copyrighted and therefore the image must be deleted. Nor is this a detail of a bigger sculpture, as can be noted from the other deleted image, per Commons:Deletion requests/File:Richard-Serra-Schunnemunk-Fork2.jpg. --Ellywa (talk) 15:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ich denke wir können das auch auf deutsch verhandeln. Ich halte es für höchst unwahrscheinlich, dass jemand, wie du als Beispiel annimmst, um 1895 ein Gemälde in einem Stil malen sollte, der zu dieser Zeit doch schon altväterlich zu nennen ist.

Wenn es Anhaltspunkte für ein Alter von vor ca. 1870 (dann hätte der Künstler nach dem Malen schon immerhin 70 Jahre Zeit zu sterben) gibt, dann soll es gerne hier bleiben. Ich verstehe leider nicht viel von der Stilistik der Gemälde. Viele Grüße --Saibo (Δ) 00:49, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
