Artist Amanda Trent, accompanied by her beloved golden retriever Laddie and her persnickety calico cat Mona Lisa, is determined to start a new life after her husband divorces her to marry a younger woman, but it isn't easy. After a disastrous interview at the prestigious Roadrunner Gallery in Lonesome Valley, Arizona, far away from her previous home in Kansas City, Amanda's afraid that she'll fail at her new career. But her prospects begin to improve when she's accepted as the newest member of the cooperative gallery. Then, on her very first day, she discovers Janice, the stern director, has been murdered right in the art gallery, and the Roadrunner's members, including Amanda herself, become suspects. Which gallery member murdered the unpopular director? Or was the killer an outsider with an ax to grind?

The purpose of this work was to examine a director's view of reinterpretation as a useful theatrical tool. As a young director, the idea of altering a text or pieces of its setting or plot can be an intimidating process, and this text allows for a deeper look at what reinterpretation is, the motivations behind it, and how directors approach creating a reinterpretation. The process of reinterpretation was first examined academically using interviews, theories, and other texts. The second approach was a practical production of Agamemnon, set in contemporary times. The production process was documented through a director's show diary, along with an actor interview and production photos. The academic portion provided an expanded vocabulary for discussing the creative process of reinterpretation, allowing directors to explain their decisions and monitor them more easily. The most useful elements of this vocabulary were the idea of approaching reinterpretation as adaptation, and two distinct approaches for reinterpretation. The most applicable advice found in this study, however, resulted from the production portion. The process revealed guidelines that should be followed when approaching a reinterpretation. This thesis demonstrates the importance of learning by doing, and the need to apply theory to be able to fully understand it.

The art scene today is one of appropriation—of remixing, reusing, and recombining the works of other artists. From the musical mash-ups of Girl Talk to the pop-culture borrowings of Damien Hirst and Jeff Koons, it’s clear that the artistic landscape is shifting—which leads to some tricky legal and philosophical questions. In this up-to-date, thorough, and accessible analysis of the right to copyright, Darren Hudson Hick works to reconcile the growing practice of artistic appropriation with innovative views of artists’ rights, both legal and moral. Engaging with long-standing debates about the nature of originality, authorship, and artists’ rights, Hick examines the philosophical challenges presented by the role of intellectual property in the artworld and vice versa. Using real-life examples of artists who have incorporated copyrighted works into their art, he explores issues of artistic creation and the nature of infringement as they are informed by analytical aesthetics and legal and critical theory. Ultimately, Artistic License provides a critical and systematic analysis of the key philosophical issues that underlie copyright policy, rethinking the relationship between artist, artwork, and the law.
