This afternoon I wanted to draw a new sculpture to Louvre.
Aude Caumon from the Communication Department at Louvre
did not like my first draft - neither did
I.
The new one became a Colorful Mona Lisa - "mona I".
I was so excited, I made 15 new motifs for sale as collages cut in
silk-screen print paper - a unique product of mine.
The first time I was in Paris I was very inspired and made a
picture of Mona Lisa.
One of 4 motifs from Paris.
4 motifs
from Paris, 1987
original collage
one of them Mona Lisa
cut in silk-screen print paper
90 x 60 cm each
My point of departure and
inspiration was the lines in a photo copy master
of Mona Lisa I found one day (in a
book I believe was from Rank Xerox) at a printing company
in Skaerup by Vejle, JMC A/S.
The lines were fantastic - my intention was to express Mona Lisa by
substituting the lines by my colors.
There are no lines in my style - only colors.
That was in 1987.
This afternoon on 20th May 2003 I redraw Mona Lisa on
my computer in Microsoft Draw 1.01,
using a digital photo
of my own Paris Mona Lisa from 1987.
And I wanted to
see what happens as you add some color to Mona Lisa.
Concerning Copyrights:
If you know the photo copy master from 1987
and see my picture of Mona, you will be able to see a resemblance.
But I do not believe a photo copy master could be subject to any
copyright.
As I have redrawn Mona twice and there are no lines in my style,
only bright colored fragments of a collage,
I do not at all believe my art work could be any
copyright violation.
If however - despite of the above - there is a copyright owner,
and the photo copy master is subject to any copyright under
these conditions
please contact me immediately on lonvig@mail.dk.
I'll pay the framing - you'll
pay the shipping.
