Copyright violation

Latest comment: 12 years ago3 comments1 person in discussion

The article has been tagged as a copyright violation because it looks to be a direct copy and past of http://www.iaia.edu/museum/vision-project/artists/kay-walkingstick/ including the "[1], [2]..." footnote markers from that page.

See Wikipedia:Copyright violations. This issue can be resolved by removing the copyrighted text and starting a new content with reliable secondary sources, such as books, articles from a news source, journals, magazines.

When there's a clear case of copyright violation, the step is to identify the article for copyright investigation, so I tagged the article.--CaroleHenson (talk) 23:07, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

I started a draft at Draft:Kay WalkingStick which includes 3 good "sources" to start with for a rewrite of the article. It seems very appropriate to have one for her!--CaroleHenson (talk) 23:42, 12 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

The draft has been moved over, and the following is just to ensure that I don't miss anything from the article before it was rewritten in a short tag or scrambled words so as not to be a copyvio here, too:

bullets of info

Mountclair Art Museum in New Jersey show called “Engaging with Nature: American and other Native American Artists” The New York Times reported on this show saying when looking at the natural world it “suggests a different set of possibilities”
~~travel to Italy... painted Alps... Gioioso Variation I~~
"WalkingStick shares the relationship Native Americans have with their materials for art making. She goes on to say that these Natives, whether they are an active part of a tribe or not, live a double life."
WalkingStick’s book is based upon comments she's received: “Turning Leaves, So You’re an Indian?” included in "Indian Humor,” show at the National Museum of the American Indian... theme of the show, clash of values...
WalkingStick explains,” Good, risky, original art is being done by Native Americans, and it is this work that must be shown and supported by serious galleries and museums. This art has been developed by individuals educated in the traditions of twentieth-century modernism, but also in touch with their Indian heritage, their cultural differences, and their spiritual concerns. It is deserving of serious critical analysis and it takes no great leap of faith to analyze or appreciate it.”
2011 - awarded an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters by Arcadia University
