This guy is taking famous artists work and combining them into a "copyrighted" picture-collages he will sell you for 400 bucks!
Pretty good thinking but if he can do it- anyone can.
His statement:

Artist´s Statement

It has been common in recent decades for prominent artists to `find´ material in the output of lesser known artists and designers. We see photographs showing works by unnamed designers, and collages of all forms of popular media. I´ve chosen to pursue the same pattern... but in reverse.

I´m using the title `Found Art´ as a double entendre rather than a pun. I made these collages from art I found in the works of great painters. But also, I used a found art technique in their creation. I develop an experience-space using technology and existing images. Then I go exploring in that space. When I find something that moves me, I lithify it as a digital collage and polish it into a finished work.

Copyright

The text and images on this page are protected by international copyright conventions and all rights are reserved. The images I incorporated into my collages are from works that have passed into the public domain with time, and the reproductions I worked from are licensed. Copyright law is a good thing. The fact that it´s accepted by pretty much every nation on earth is one indication of this.
