‘Art & Intellectual Property’ is a research project conducted from 2009-11 in collaboration with artist Marysia Lewandowska exploring relationships between artistic practice, legal structures, open culture and the public realm. The project has taken the form of discussion group (The Showroom/London); published conversations (Paletten/Göteborg, Shadowboxing/London, Czas Kultury/Poznan); and reading room (Center for Curatorial Studies/New York) encouraging publics to explore the ways in which models of property ownership, power relations and the boundaries between public and private are quietly, and not so quietly, being redrawn inside our knowledge economy.
