it’s more than ironic. it’s pathetic. imagine an institution tasked to represent the supposedly brave mediamen bowing to some unseen forces. i believe that explains why most of the older journalists have shied away from the club.

Siguro mas maganda kung naupo na muna silang dalawa at pinag usapan kung ano ang dapat gawin.

@Isagani RX kung hindi ako nagkakamali, whether commissioned or not ang isang artwork, ang copyright at intellectual property right ay nasa kung sino pa rin ang gumawa ng artwork. Kaya nga ang mga painting kahit nabibili (ata) sa painter pa rin naka-copyright.

Ayon din sa kontrata (ayon sa report ng inquirer), “any alterations to the painting shall be mutually agreed upon.” Ayun.

Salamat sa pagfifeature! =)

If this piece of art is indeed a paid art, I want to know who legally owns the “art”, and what are the provisions of the contract.

You mentioned earlier, that this group has been “commissioned” right.

I will give NPC the benefit of the doubt. Ilabas ang kontrata ng malaman natin kung nakasaad nga doon na walang pahintulot ang NPC na baguhin ang nasabing “Art”

Ikaw nga pala ang BlogHop feature blogger ko for today.

@Bikoy onga eh. Kunwari pa ang NPC na done “in good faith” daw. Sheesh!

And I have to agree with the Neo-Angono artists, kasi bukod sa figurative defacement ng mural eh ang panget panget pa nung pag-alter sa painting! Haha.

It’s interesting to note that these alterations were hastily made the day before it was to be inaugurated by Gloria Arroyo. hayy.
