It reformulates their principle while making it possible for the +public to make creative use of the works of art. Whereas current literary and +artistic property rights result in restriction of the public's access to works +of art, the goal of the Free Art License is to encourage such access. + +The intention is to make work accessible and to authorise the use of its +resources by the greatest number of people: to use it in order to increase its +use, to create new conditions for creation in order to multiply the +possibilities of creation, while respecting the originators in according them +recognition and defending their moral rights. + +In fact, with the arrival of the digital age, the invention of the Internet and +free software, a new approach to creation and production has made its +appearance. It also encourages a continuation of the process of experimentation +undertaken by many contemporary artists. + +Knowledge and creativity are resources which, to be true to themselves, must +remain free, i.e. remain a fundamental search which is not directly related to +a concrete application. Creating means discovering the unknown, means inventing +a reality without any heed to realism. Thus, the object(ive) of art is not +equivalent to the finished and defined art object. This is the basic aim of +this Free Art License: to promote and protect artistic practice freed from the +rules of the market economy. + +——– DEFINITIONS + +- The work of art : A communal work which includes the initial artwork as well + as all subsequent contributions (subsequent originals and copies). It is +created at the initiative of the original artist who, by this license, defines +the conditions according to which the contributions are made. + +- The original work of art : This is the artwork created by the initiator of + the communal work, of which copies will be modified by whosoever wishes. + +- Subsequent works : These are the additions put forward by the artists who + contribute to the formation of the work by taking advantage of the right to +reproduction, distribution and modification that this license confers on them. + +- The Original (the work's source or resource) : A dated example of the work, + of its definition, of its partition or of its program which the originator +provides as the reference for all future updatings, interpretations, copies or +reproductions. + +- Copy : Any reproduction of an original as defined by this license. + +- The author or the artist of the original work of art: This is the person who + created the work which is at the heart of the ramifications of this modified +work of art. By this license, the author determines the conditions under which +these modifications are made. + +- Contributor: Any person who contributes to the creation of the work of art. + He is the author or the artist of an original art object resulting from the +modification of a copy of the initial artwork or the modification of a copy of +a subsequent work of art. + +——– + +1. AIMS + +The aim of this license is to define the conditions according to which you can +use this work freely. + +2. EXTENT OF THE USAGE + +This work of art is subject to copyright, and the author, by this license, +specifies the extent to which you can copy, distribute and modify it. + +2.1 FREEDOM TO COPY (OR OF REPRODUCTION) + +You have the right to copy this work of art for your personal use, for your +friends or for any other person, by employing whatever technique you choose. + +2.2 FREEDOM TO DISTRIBUTE, TO INTERPRET (OR OF REPRESENTATION) + +You can freely distribute the copies of these works, modified or not, whatever +their medium, wherever you wish, for a fee or for free, if you observe all the +following conditions: +- attach this license, in its entirety, to the copies or indicate precisely + where the license can be found, +- specify to the recipient the name of the author of the originals, +- specify to the recipient where he will be able to access the originals + (original and subsequent). The author of the original may, if he wishes, give +you the right to broadcast/distribute the original under the same conditions as +the copies. + +2.3 FREEDOM TO MODIFY + +You have the right to modify the copies of the originals (original and +subsequent), partially or otherwise, respecting the conditions set out in +article 2.2 , in the event of distribution (or representation) of the modified +copy. The author of the original may, if he wishes, give you the right to +modify the original under the same conditions as the copies. + +3. INCORPORATION OF ARTWORK + +All the elements of this work of art must remain free, which is why you are not +allowed to integrate the originals (originals and subsequents) into another +work which would not be subject to this license. + +4. YOUR AUTHOR'S RIGHTS + +The object of this license is not to deny your author's rights on your +contribution. By choosing to contribute to the evolution of this work of art, +you only agree to give to others the same rights with regard to your +contribution as those which were granted to you by this license. + +5. DURATION OF THE LICENCE + +This license takes effect as of your acceptance of its provisions. The fact of +copying, distributing, or of modifying the work constitutes a tacit agreement. +This license will remain in force for as long as the copyright which is +attached to the work of art. If you do not respect the terms of this license, +you automatically lose the rights that it confers. If the legal status to which +you are subject makes it impossible for you to respect the terms of this +license, you may not make use of the rights which it confers. + +6. VARIOUS VERSIONS OF THE LICENCE + +This license may undergo periodic modifications to incorporate improvements by +its authors (instigators of the "copyleft attitude" movement) by way of new, +numbered versions. + +You will have the choice of accepting the provisions contained in the version +under which the copy was communicated to you, or alternatively, to use the +provisions of one of the subsequent versions. + +7. SUB-LICENSING + +Sub-licenses are not authorized by the present license. Any person who wishes +to make use of the rights that it confers will be directly bound to the author +of the original work. + +8. THE LAW APPLICABLE TO THIS CONTRACT + +This license is subject to French law. + +——– + +DIRECTIONS FOR USE : + +- How to use the Free Art license? + +To benefit from the Free Art License, it is enough to specify the following on +your work of art: + +[- A few lines to indicate the name of the work and to give an idea of what it +is.] [- A few lines to describe, if necessary, the modified work of art and +give the name of the author/artist.] Copyright © [the date] [name of the author +or artist] (if appropriate, specify the names of the previous authors or +artists) Copyleft: this work of art is free, you can redistribute it and/or +modify it according to terms of the Free Art license. You will find a specimen +of this license on the site Copyleft Attitude http://artlibre.org as well as on +other sites. + +- Why use the Free Art license? + +1 / to give the greatest number of people access to your work. + +2 / to allow it to be freely distributed. + +3 / to allow it to evolve by authorising its transformation by others. + +4 / to be able, yourself, to use the resources of a work when it is under Free +Art license: to copy, distribute or transform it freely. + +5 / This is not all: because the use of the Free Art License is also a good way +to take liberties with the marketing system generated by the dominant economy. +The Free Art License offers a useful legal protocol to prevent abusive +appropriation. It will no longer be possible for someone to appropriate your +work, short-circuiting the creative process to make personal profit from it. +Helping yourself to a collective work in progress will be forbidden, as will +monopolising the resources of an evolving creation for the benefit of a few. + +The Free Art License advocates an economy appropriate for art, based on +sharing, exchange and joyful giving. What counts in art is also and mostly what +is not counted. + +- When to use the Free Art License ? + +It is not the goal of the Free Art License to eliminate copyright or author's +rights. Quite the opposite, it is about reformulating the relevance of these +rights while taking today's environment into account. It is about the right to +freedom of movement, to free copying and to free transformation of works of +art. The right to work in freedom for art and artists. + +1 / Each time you want to use or put this right into practice, use the Free Art +License. + +2 / Each time you want to create works which can evolve and be freely copied, +freely distributed and freely transformed: use the Free Art License. + +3 / Each time you want to have the possibility of copying, distributing or +transforming a work: check that it is under Free Art License. If it is not, you +are liable to be breaking the law. + +- To which types of art can the Free Art License be applied? + +This license can be applied to digital as well as to non-digital art. It was +born out of observation of the world of free software and the Internet, but its +applicability is not limited to the digital media. You can put a painting, a +novel, a sculpture, a drawing, a piece of music, a poem, an installation, a +video, a film, a recipe, a CD-rom, a Web site, or a performance under the Free +Art License, in short any creation which has some claim to be a work of art. + +This license has a history: it was born at the meeting " Copyleft Attitude " +which took place at "Accès Local" and "Public" in Paris at the beginning of the +year 2000. For the first time, it brought computer specialists and freeware +activists together with contemporary artists and members of the art world.
