Accident? Cooperation? Copy?
7. October 2008 T-Shirts & Hoodies
Do you remember the T-Shirt i posted last week? Yorgos from ozon magazine was the one who pointed out that there are highly visible similarities to a Lina Scheynius´ photo that has been published in several European magazines as well as in the september issue of ozon magazine.
And indeed - Yorgos is right, the analogy in between illustration and photo are astonishing. I wonder, why there´s no hint to Lina Scheynius and/or to the illustrator on the website of T-Shirt seller, The YourEyesLie Store….

ich hatte letzens auch das gefühl, illustrationen die sehr stark an garnce doré abgelehnt waren auf billigen t-shirts gedruckt zu sehen….. jaja der diebstahl der kunst.

thank you for letting me know!
it is not an accident or a cooperation. but someone else told me about it yesterday and i emailed the t-shirt shop and they told me they will take it down.
how are you?
best lina
Oh- Super, Super, Super. Ich hatte schon angesetzt, bei den Shirt-Machern nachzufragen. Der Weg über Lina ist natürlich noch besser. Danke für´s “In die Hand nehmen”
Schade, dass die Chose nicht im Vorfeld geklärt wurde. Das Shirt ist schön und im Grunde wäre es eine gute Promo für Lina…wenn sie denn gefeatured werden würde…..Nun. Lass uns mal beobachten, was aus der Sache wird. Liebe Grüße, Judith
