Henry Moore Kew Exhibition

Photographs of sculptures by Henry Moore exhibited at Kew Gardens. As Moore died in 1986, his work remains in copyright in the UK until 2056. For sculpture permanently sited in a public place, Freedom of Panorama applies, but the Kew exhibition was temporary and so the works displayed there are not protected by FoP.

  •  Keep Photo about a tree, not the artwork in the background. It's obviously COM:DM. --Regasterios (talk) 21:50, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
  •  Keep This picture is about the tree, no't the sculpture. I don't care about the sculpture; it just was there. DenesFeri (talk) 09:08, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Keep There is no commonly understood definition of 'permanently exposed'. Moore's sculptures are significant installations, they are not movable by a couple of folks with a van, because they are normally bolted down into cement. Though they are on display for less than a year, it is a matter of debate as to whether for copyright purposes they are sufficiently permanently placed. --Fæ (talk) 08:01, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
  • COM:FoP says: Whether a work is installed at a public place permanently or not is not a question of absolute time, but a question of what the intention was when the work was placed there. If it was put there with the intention of leaving it in the public place indefinitely or at least for the whole natural lifetime of the work, then it is "permanent".
    A sculpture is typically placed with the intent of leaving it for an indefinite time. But if it was clear from the beginning that it would be left there only, say, for three years and then be moved to a museum, then the placement was not "permanent". On the other hand, if a sculpture was placed with the intent of leaving it "open end", but is then removed due to new construction plans some time later, its placement remains "permanent" even if the sculpture is eventually removed.
  • Under that definition, it is clear that the installation was not permanent. And if you argue that this is, in fact, contra COM:FoP, permanent, then what the hell counts as temporary? All artworks are installed in such a way that a random member of public can't just pick them up and walk away with them. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 22:05, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
