The Artists Reserved Rights Transfer and Sale Agreement in Action. A case study in diplomatics
2022-2023
Arguing that Seth Siegelaub’s and Robert Projansky’s seminal “relational tool” can be considered an artistic document in its own right, Sara Martinetti develops an anthropological and theoretical approach that is inspired by diplomatics and that considers The Artist’s Reserved Rights Transfer and Sale Agreement as a piece of writing anchored in a set of situations.
