etcc is  a  series  of  exhibitions  that  are  remixed  and  remixable  – legally.    In  2011  etcc  will  host  three  consecutive  exhibitions  in  Sydney,  Brisbane  and  Melbourne  featuring  a  body  of  new  works  that  explore  the  realities  of  copyright  in  the  visual  arts.  By  hanging  the  polarized  copyright  debate  on  the  gallery  wall  the  works  challenge  piracy,  appropriation,  inspiration,  legal  licensing  and  the  freedom  to  create.
Each  artist  will  take  Creative  Commons  licensed  images,  create  a  new  work  based  on  those  images,  and  in  turn  license  their  image  for  others  to  remix – legally.  Through  this  process,  the  project  utilizes  emerging  copyright  practices  to  demonstrate  new  models  of  distribution,  collaboration  and  commerce.  Appropriation.  Rip  offs.  Sharing.  Remix.  Collaboration.  Piracy.  Due  credit.  The  environment  that  artists  operate  in  now  is  both  liberating  and  litigious.  The  copyright  debate  is  drab  and  polarised,  and  of  little  relevance  to  many  artists’  creative  practice.  However,  this  does  not  mean  that  it  does  not  exist,  for  better  or  for  worse,  in  the  creative  world.    The  creative  community  is  changing.  Technology  is  changing.  The  ways  artists  can  control  their  respective  rights  are  changing  too.  A  culture  is  emerging  to  allow  artists  to  shift,  integrate  and  remix  each others’  work;  resulting  in  the  formation  of  something  fresh  and  unrestrained  from  the  chains  of  traditional  legal  regulations.  Many  musicians,  filmmakers  and  digital  artists  have  embraced  this  concept  however  remix  is  far  from  an  established  visual  arts  practice.

etcc  invites  artists  to  look  at  ways  to  legally  reuse  work  and  encourages  the  creative  community  to  better  understand  both  their  inherent  rights  and  potential  alternatives  to  the  blanket  of  “all  rights  reserved” copyright  law.  The  audience  is  also  asked  to  appreciate  the  artistic  process  where  one  creation  is  transformed  into  something  entirely  new  whether  obviously  or  conceptually;  all  playing  with  the  notion  that  most  works  are  derivative  in  nature.    The etcc exhibition  will  showcase  a  broad  range  of  works  from  a  varied  selection  of  artists  including  Beastman,  Numskull,  Phibs,  Ben Frost,  MiniGraff,  Benjamin Reeve,  Rena  Littleson,  Maricor  Maricar,  and  many  more  to  be  announced.

 WHAT:
 The etcc exhibition features a body of new works exploring the realities of copyright in the visual arts. The creative community is changing; a culture is emerging allowing artists to appropriate, integrate and remix each others’ work. But coupled with these notions of inspiration and freedom to create are issues of piracy, legal licensing and artistic ownership.

 Etcc takes the debate and slams it right on the gallery wall, with each artist creating a work that is both recycled and recyclable. Each work recycles licensed Creative Commons images, and is in turn licensed for others to remix – legally. What results is an interactive process that highlights how most art is derivative in nature, while questioning the ramifications of this on the artistic community.
