My film 'A History Of The World According To Getty Images' has its European premiere @idfa today. To mark the occasion, I've made a poster from an image that Getty appropriated from NASA

Just read the ‘Art Power 100’ list of the most powerful people in the art world ArtReview_. Perhaps the 30 anonymous art insiders who made the list should also be on it. Those who stay in the shadows, deciding who has power, often have even more power. artreview.com/power-100?year…

I was just interviewed on Here & Now NPR about why the public domain doesn't work for images. Thank you Samantha Raphelson for helping raise public awareness about this issue and @TongScott for the spot-on questions npr.org/2023/05/01/117…

Richard Misek's "A History Of The World According To Getty Images" topped the 2023 poll; was I ahead of my time when I nominated it for the 2021 poll?? Who's to say? Either way, watch it here: …yoftheworldaccordingtogettyimages.com

Interesting article. Interesting in that it uncritically parrots paywalled 'research' by what seems to be a broadcaster-funded junktank, without asking who commissioned it, what its evidence base and methodology were, or even what its actual findings were. bbc.com/news/articles/…
