Copyright Fair Use Checklist - University of Chicago

# data[].attributes.subject
Copyright Fair Use Checklist - University of Chicago

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Determining if your use is fair

Use this checklist to assist your determination of whether your proposed use of a copyrighted work is "fair use" under the Copyright Act.

To Use this Fair Use Checklist

fill in the blanks about the copyrighted work and your proposed use of it;

check the boxes that apply to your use (many uses will require that you check more than one box under each category);

some checked boxes will favor a finding of fair use and others may oppose a finding of fair use;

the ultimate concern is whether the cumulative "weight" of the checked factors favors or opposes fair use. Because you are most familiar with your proposed use of the copyrighted work, you are probably best positioned to make that determination;

once you have complete the checklist, you might wish to keep a copy of the completed checklist in your files for future reference. You can use your browser's print button to print a copy.

If you cannot complete the checklist or have questions about its use, help is available.

Background

"Fair use" is a provision of the Copyright Act that provides that certain uses of copyrighted works do not constitute copyright infringement. The Copyright Act establishes a four factor test, the "fair use test," to determine whether a use of a copyrighted work is fair use that does not require the permission of the copyright owner. The Copyright Information Center provides additional background information about fair use to help you.

A Note About Licensed Resources

If you are seeking to use a digitized version of a copyright work (such as a PDF or other electronic copy on a Chalk site), remember that many works are licensed by the University of Chicago Library and can be accessed through the Library's electronic resources. Because of the inherent subjectivity in determinations of fair use under the Copyright Act, in most cases linking to licensed resources is preferable to relying on fair use to establish your right to use copyrighted materials. The Library also makes available additional information about how to create links to licensed resources within Chalk or e-reserves.

While it's hard to beat the experience of seeing a seminal piece of fine art or important historical artifact with your own two eyes, you could easily spend a lifetime traveling the world in search of all of them. Fortunately, the digital age has made it possible-easy, even-to visit some of the world's most famous museums from the comfort of your own home. Here are a dozen of them.

The Louvre is not only one of the world's largest art museums, but it's also one of Paris's most iconic historic monuments. The museum offers free online tours of some of its most important and popular exhibits, such as its Egyptian Antiquities and works from Michelangelo. You can take a 360-degree look at the museum, and click around the rare artifacts to get additional information on their histories.

While the architecture of the Guggenheim's building itself, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, is quite impressive, you don't have to visit the Big Apple to get an up-close view of some of the priceless pieces of artwork inside. The museum makes some of its collections and exhibits available online for people who want to get a taste of what the museum has to offer, including works from Franz Marc, Piet Mondrian, Pablo Picasso, and Jeff Koons.

Founded in 1937, the National Gallery of Art is free and open to the general public. For those who aren't in Washington, D.C., it also provides virtual tours of its gallery and exhibits. You can view its current exhibitions and listen to audio and video recordings of past lectures online.

The Met is home to over 2 million works of fine art, but you don't have to be in New York City to enjoy them. The institution's website features an online collection and virtual tours of some of its most impressive pieces, including works from Vincent van Gogh, Jackson Pollock, and Giotto di Bondone. In addition, The Met also works with the Google Cultural Institute to make even more artwork (that's not featured in its own online collection) available for view.

Located in the town of Figueres in Catalonia, Spain, the Dalí Theatre-Museum is completely dedicated to the artwork of Salvador Dalí.

The mission statement of the National Women's History Museum in Alexandria, Virginia, is to educate, inspire, empower, and shape the future "by integrating women's distinctive history and culture in the United States." Part of that mission is delivered through well-curated online exhibits and oral histories.

As its name suggests, the National Museum of the United States Air Force is the official museum of the United States Air Force. Centered on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, it houses a wide array of military weapons and aircraft, including the presidential airplanes of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Richard Nixon. The museum also offers free virtual tours of its entire grounds, letting you glimpse objects like decommissioned aircraft from World War II, Vietnam, and the Korean War.

To help its users discover and view important artworks online in high resolution and detail, Google partnered with more than 1200 cultural institutions from around the world to archive and document priceless pieces of art and to provide virtual tours of museums using Google Street View technology. The Google Art Project features fine art from the White House, the Museum of Islamic Art in Qatar, and even São Paulo street art from Brazil. Here's a complete list of museums you can visit virtually.

Copyright Fair Use Checklist - University of Chicago

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Determining if your use is fair

Use this checklist to assist your determination of whether your proposed use of a copyrighted work is "fair use" under the Copyright Act.

To Use this Fair Use Checklist

fill in the blanks about the copyrighted work and your proposed use of it;

check the boxes that apply to your use (many uses will require that you check more than one box under each category);

some checked boxes will favor a finding of fair use and others may oppose a finding of fair use;

the ultimate concern is whether the cumulative "weight" of the checked factors favors or opposes fair use. Because you are most familiar with your proposed use of the copyrighted work, you are probably best positioned to make that determination;

once you have complete the checklist, you might wish to keep a copy of the completed checklist in your files for future reference. You can use your browser's print button to print a copy.

If you cannot complete the checklist or have questions about its use, help is available.

Background

"Fair use" is a provision of the Copyright Act that provides that certain uses of copyrighted works do not constitute copyright infringement. The Copyright Act establishes a four factor test, the "fair use test," to determine whether a use of a copyrighted work is fair use that does not require the permission of the copyright owner. The Copyright Information Center provides additional background information about fair use to help you.

A Note About Licensed Resources

If you are seeking to use a digitized version of a copyright work (such as a PDF or other electronic copy on a Chalk site), remember that many works are licensed by the University of Chicago Library and can be accessed through the Library's electronic resources. Because of the inherent subjectivity in determinations of fair use under the Copyright Act, in most cases linking to licensed resources is preferable to relying on fair use to establish your right to use copyrighted materials. The Library also makes available additional information about how to create links to licensed resources within Chalk or e-reserves.
Adapted with permission from the Copyright Advisory Office at Columbia University, Kenneth D. Crews, director (www.copyright.columbia.edu).

Copyright Fair Use Checklist - University of Chicago

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Determining if your use is fair

Use this checklist to assist your determination of whether your proposed use of a copyrighted work is "fair use" under the Copyright Act.

To Use this Fair Use Checklist

fill in the blanks about the copyrighted work and your proposed use of it;

check the boxes that apply to your use (many uses will require that you check more than one box under each category);

some checked boxes will favor a finding of fair use and others may oppose a finding of fair use;

the ultimate concern is whether the cumulative "weight" of the checked factors favors or opposes fair use. Because you are most familiar with your proposed use of the copyrighted work, you are probably best positioned to make that determination;

once you have complete the checklist, you might wish to keep a copy of the completed checklist in your files for future reference. You can use your browser's print button to print a copy.

If you cannot complete the checklist or have questions about its use, help is available.

Background

"Fair use" is a provision of the Copyright Act that provides that certain uses of copyrighted works do not constitute copyright infringement. The Copyright Act establishes a four factor test, the "fair use test," to determine whether a use of a copyrighted work is fair use that does not require the permission of the copyright owner. The Copyright Information Center provides additional background information about fair use to help you.

A Note About Licensed Resources

If you are seeking to use a digitized version of a copyright work (such as a PDF or other electronic copy on a Chalk site), remember that many works are licensed by the University of Chicago Library and can be accessed through the Library's electronic resources. Because of the inherent subjectivity in determinations of fair use under the Copyright Act, in most cases linking to licensed resources is preferable to relying on fair use to establish your right to use copyrighted materials. The Library also makes available additional information about how to create links to licensed resources within Chalk or e-reserves.

Bienvenidos al Museo del Prado, una institución bicentenaria cuyo origen y poderosa singularidad debe mucho a los gustos de los monarcas de los siglos XVI y XVII. El coleccionismo entonces difería del actual. Sin pretensiones enciclopédicas, aspiraba a reunir cuantas obras fuera posible de los artistas predilectos. Ello explica que del Prado se haya dicho que es un museo de pintores, no de pinturas, pues los artistas representados suelen estarlo de forma superlativa, pudiendo preciarse de poseer los mayores conjuntos de El Bosco, Tiziano, El Greco, Rubens, Velázquez o Goya, a veces con más de un centenar obras. Este tipo de coleccionismo, visceralmente pasional, generaba también lagunas, y explica que unos períodos estén peor representados que otros, a veces porque entonces no interesaban, como sucedía con los "primitivos" italianos, otras por circunstancias históricas, como ocurrió con la pintura holandesa del Seiscientos.

El primer pintor coleccionado por los monarcas españoles, y el pilar sobre el que se erigió la colección real, fue Tiziano. La elección tuvo consecuencias decisivas para el coleccionismo regio e incluso para la propia evolución de la pintura española. Al decantarse por el campeón del color en detrimento de los pintores florentinos y romanos que defendían la primacía del "disegno", los monarcas optaron por una pintura que primaba sus aspectos más emotivos y sensuales. A Tiziano siguieron otros venecianos (Veronese, Tintoretto) y aquellos artistas que asumieron su legado, como los flamencos Pedro Pablo Rubens y Anton Van Dyck, y la influencia de unos y otros fue decisiva para la eclosión de la pintura española en el siglo XVII, con Velázquez a la cabeza. Esta fue la viga maestra de la antigua colección real, pero no fue la única. Otros pintores y escuelas fueron incorporados desde el siglo XVI. Felipe II gustó de la pintura flamenca del XV -lo que explica nuestras colecciones de van der Weyden, Memling y, sobre todo, el Bosco- y aún más decisivo fue Felipe IV, quien no sólo encargó obras a ya citados Rubens, Velázquez y Van Dyck, también al español activo en Nápoles José de Ribera, a los franceses Nicolás Poussin y Claudio de Lorena, y a pintores italianos que contribuyeron a decorar sus múltiples residencias. Procuró además paliar lagunas existentes, agregando a la colección artistas italianos del Renacimiento italiano no veneciano como Rafael, Parmigianino o Correggio. A su muerte la colección real española era la mejor de Europa y el modelo a imitar.

Con el advenimiento de la dinastía Borbón llegaron los pintores franceses, dando inicio a un siglo, el XVIII, dominado por artistas foráneos. A los franceses les sucedieron los italianos y, en el tercer cuarto de la centuria, Madrid fue escenario de una de las rivalidades artísticas más fascinantes de Europa, cuando Carlos III empleó a dos artífices antagónicos en sus formas de entender y practicar la pintura: el veneciano Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, brillante epígono de la gran tradición, y el bohemio formado en Roma Anton Raphael Mengs, heraldo del neoclasicismo. Sólo a finales del siglo, con Goya, vuelve un pintor español a dominar el escenario cortesano.

El Prado y sus colecciones son reflejo de la historia de España, cuyo menguante papel internacional en el siglo XIX mermó su atractivo para artistas foráneos. Son ahora los españoles quienes se educan y trabajan fuera: en Roma a principios de la centuria, y desde mediados en París, convertida en capital mundial del arte. De ello, del fervor nacionalista que recorrió el siglo, y que nuestros pintores plasmaron en lienzos que celebraban sus gentes, paisajes e historia,y de la desamortización de los bienes eclesiásticos que, vía Museo de la Trinidad, contribuyeron decisivamente a acrecentar los fondos procedentes de la Corona, dan fe nuestras colecciones, que se cierran en 1881, año de nacimiento de Picasso. Y unas colecciones que, aunque mayoritariamente pictóricas, comprenden asimismo excepcionales testimonios escultóricos, de artes decorativas y de obras sobre papel, de la Antigüedad al siglo XIX.

Desde su creación en 1819 el Museo del Prado ha sido un decisivo actor del progreso de la historia del arte. Ha sido determinante en la recuperación de los primitivos españoles y de figuras emblemáticas como El Greco, en el encumbramiento de Velázquez a la cúspide del Parnaso pictórico español, y sus salas han servido de inspiración a algunos de los pintores más vanguardistas de los últimos 150 años. Tal es el acervo que mostramos orgullosos a nuestros visitantes.

Thirty creative thinkers discuss works from the collection.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
With the Museum's reopening just around the corner, we have joined with the BBC to offer fresh perspectives on the works on view in our galleries. The Way I See It, a 30-episode radio and podcast series, launches today on BBC Sounds. Thirty extraordinary creative thinkers chose a work that they love. Guests such as actor and comedian Steve Martin, acclaimed critic and writer Roxane Gay, Minimalist composer Steve Reich, stand-up comedian and actor Margaret Cho, and civil rights leader Bryan Stevenson join MoMA curators to describe how art inspires the work they do and the lives they lead. How does an astrophysicist see Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night? How does a jazz pianist see Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie? How does one of the first black women to write for Marvel Comics see the difficult truths in Kara Walker's sweeping image of African American history? How does a sculptor see a painting? The Way I See It, hosted by art critic and broadcaster Alastair Sooke, looks to provoke, inspire, and startle us into new ways of seeing art and our world.

The first episode of The Way I See It is available today, October 14. A new episode will air each weekday for three weeks. The second half of the series will continue on Monday, December 2. You can listen on BBC Sounds or wherever you get your podcasts.

Major support for the program is provided by The Museum of Modern Art's Research and Scholarly Publications endowment established through the generosity of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Edward John Noble Foundation, Mr. and Mrs. Perry R. Bass, and the National Endowment for the Humanities' Challenge Grant Program.

Y unas colecciones que, aunque mayoritariamente pictóricas, comprenden asimismo excepcionales testimonios escultóricos, de artes decorativas y de obras sobre papel, de la Antigüedad al siglo XIX.

Desde su creación en 1819 el Museo del Prado ha sido un decisivo actor del progreso de la historia del arte. Ha sido determinante en la recuperación de los primitivos españoles y de figuras emblemáticas como El Greco, en el encumbramiento de Velázquez a la cúspide del Parnaso pictórico español, y sus salas han servido de inspiración a algunos de los pintores más vanguardistas de los últimos 150 años. Tal es el acervo que mostramos orgullosos a nuestros visitantes.

Bienvenidos al Museo del Prado, una institución bicentenaria cuyo origen y poderosa singularidad debe mucho a los gustos de los monarcas de los siglos XVI y XVII. El coleccionismo entonces difería del actual. Sin pretensiones enciclopédicas, aspiraba a reunir cuantas obras fuera posible de los artistas predilectos.
