[MCN-L] Joseph Stella
We wonder who owns the rights for Joseph Stella's work. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts is publishing a catalogue in early 2014 entitled *Master Drawings from the Minneapolis Institute of Arts *and we'd like to include a digital reproduction of the *Pittsburgh Factory Scene, *1915-20, pastel and charcoal, part of the MIA's collection in the publication. Thank you. -- Daniela Trentin, Associate Researcher Department of Prints and Drawings Minneapolis Institute of Arts 2400 Third Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55404 dtrentin at artsmia.org www.artsmia.org

Daniela, I don't know the answer but at least one museum apparently came to the conclusion that Stella's estate can't be reached since under rights statement they refer to one of his pieces as an orphaned work. http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/opencollection/objects/352/The_Virgin The executor of Stella's estate was Rabin and Kreuger Gallery. Kreuger died about 50 years ago and Rabin died about 10 years ago. You might be able to get some info by contacting a gallery that reports being a representative of the estate, e.g. http://www.pensler.com/About.htm or a gallery that handling a Stella piece they report being owned by the daughter of one of the executors: http://www.veredart.com/gallery/artist/joseph_stella_the_veiled_lady_the_persian_lady.pdf Good luck, Dan Freidus On Tue, Sep 24, 2013 at 11:03 AM, Daniela Trentin dtrentin at artsmia.orgwrote: We wonder who owns the rights for Joseph Stella's work.

Hi Dan (and MCN-L) -- I replied to Daniela off list. We did a thorough search for active representatives of the estate and were not able to find anyone who claimed rights. To summarize: the heirs (Stella's nephews) are all deceased and we found no gallery or licensing agency representation of the estate. The next generation was not responsive.

[MCN-L] Call for Instructors - Tech Tutorials @ AAM 2014
AAM's Media Technology Committee is working with AAM to have a large offering of Tech Tutorials at the 2014 annual conference in Seattle. These tutorials are 75-minute nuts-and-bolts sessions on various tech topics, from social media, to video production, to mobile development, and copyright issues. In the past these have worked best with teams of 2-3 people team-teaching them. A call for instructors is included in AAM's session proposals, but our response has been spotty. We also need to have a museum staff person on each instructor team, so we're putting out a call again. If you are interested in teaching one of these, please fill out this form by Monday, Sept 30: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cM0NJODdqrRQIk_T9ksUu0j02f1mdjnwEdVBWJp4tJw/viewform A list of all the proposed tutorials, with descriptions, is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15L5Hrr2Em_kVR4vVHNRN9CtBOLmYe5N0kNn635-JGZ0/edit?usp=sharing Descriptions are also available within AAM's session proposal listing online (http://www.aam-us.org/events/annual-meeting/proposals/ (Filter for Media Technology, and then look for sessions beginning with Tech Tutorial.) Note that AAM has not yet approved these for the final program, but they seem keen on including them. Thanks! - Susan Susan Edwards Sr. Writer/Editor, Web Group J.
