Episode 14: The Fake Art Campaign with Arts Law
b"For this episode, we discuss the Fake Art Harms Culture campaign.\\n \\nThe Fake Art campaign is being run by Arts Law, the Indigenous Art Code and Copyright Agency, to introduce policy to protect Indigenous artists against Fake Art being made and sold in Australia.\\n \\nWe speak with Gabrielle O'Sullivan, BiBi Barber and Judy Grady about why this campaign is so important and how artists and arts workers can get involved with the current Parliamentary Inquiry.\\n \\nThe Fake Art campaign suggests over 80% of Aboriginal products sold in Australia are not authentic \\u2013 meaning they are not made by or credited to Australia's Indigenous peoples. It is important that Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander people\\u2019s rights are protected and this means stopping the fake art and holding companies, individuals and dealers to more transparent and ethical processes.\\n \\nThe campaign is encouraging artists to make a submission to the enquiry, for more information go to www.aph.gov.au/inauthenticart\\n \\nThis discussion was part of the NAVA Book Club, held during Artspace\\u2019s Volume Another Art Book Fair 2017. Stay tuned for the next podcast from this event that will discuss Indigenous protocols and policies and critical methodologies."
