Marcel Duchamp’s ”Nude Descending a Staircase”. This painting was completed in 1912 and was first exhibited in New York in February of 1913. Like the title suggests, it was meant to depict a nude woman descending a staircase, a subject many traditional artists had visited. When Duchamp’s rendition of “Nude Descending a Staircase” was first unveiled, it caused a sensation throughout the viewers. Instead of a “sensual and time-honored” (Philadelphia Museum) subject, the audience was presented with an abstract and almost mechanical-like image. It is said that “Nude Descending a Staircase” would eventually become a symbol because of its combination of so many different avant-garde ideals of its time. According to Marcel Duchamp, “If a shadow is a two dimensional projection of the three-dimensional world, then the three-dimensional world as we know it is the projection of the four dimensional universe” (University of Vienna). The fourth dimension, time, was an elusive element to capture using traditional methods of art, but with the advent of Net art, characterizing time is no longer an obstacle. In “Nude Descending a Staircase”, Marcel Duchamp attempts to capture the motion of a woman descending a staircase, resulting in a Cubist-Futurist image.

| | | | Ahhh.
See, I got something vaguely 2 dimensional out of it, and at first I thought: "This is probably a painting I don't recognize" and then I thought: "well it's rendered in there pretty well.. maybe it's something that's supposed to look 3-dimensional, and is failing on that point".
Turns out I should have gone with my first instinct.

| | | | I may be mistaken, but I think the point of seicer's post was to find out if the original photo belongs to anyone here because every one of those Photoshop images is a copyright violation.
They are all derivative works of the original, and are not covered under any fair use statues. You simply can't take someone's images & make 'art' out of them just because it's fun without authorization of the copyright owner.

Sorry if I didn't make that the point. If there is a copyright violation, then the original owner of the photograph should move forward if there is a copyright stamp on the page itself that covers the photographs. If not, then there is no case.

Actually, that's not correct. Copyright of an image is owned by someone (typically either the artist, be they a photographer or otherwise, or the client for whom it was made) the moment it is created and does not need to be 'stamped' to have that copyright enforced. Unauthorized use of an image is a violation of copyright law, which is federal.

Wow, I always assumed you had to have a copyright stamp on the page somewhere that covers the works it falls under. Thanks for the clarification.

| | | | Nightbird already posted the link to where the image came from http://wvs.topleftpixel.com/archives/photos_brickworks/051004_1323.shtml
And further more, the page does have a copyright on the page: all images copyright ©2005 sam javanrouh | contact me for any usage info or print order
But these are obviously not being sold or called art. They are parodies. They are just photoshoping someone elses photo for fun. It's not like they're claiming the photo as there own and mass producing it for print sales.
"A parody exists when one imitates a serious piece of work, such as literature, music or artwork, for a humorous or satirical effect."

They are not parodies because they are not imitations of the original work but rather they are using the original work as the background for their own. As such they are not, as stated earlier, covered under any fair use statue.
These are derivative works and without the authorization of the copyright holder, they violate his copyright.
