The news that the Graphic Artist Guild (GAG), which purports to be an organization 'supporting artists’ rights', has filed a lawsuit against fellow artists IS SIMPLY OUTRAGEOUS! <br /><br />That the Graphic Artists Guild has chosen to file suit against the Illustrators Partnership of America (IPA) and the very artists who've led the on-going fight against the Orphan Works bill – which the Guild has supported – leaves us questioning, “Why a lawsuit against fellow artists”?...“Why now”?...<br /><br />To be clear, some of us are members of the IPA and/or GAG, but this request is non-partisan. For those who were once proud members of GAG, this public stance opposing GAG is a difficult one. We support all voices working on behalf of artists, but we speak with a unified voice as friends and colleagues within the creative community against this lawsuit. We fear our silence now would be misconstrued as agreement with this action by the GAG.<br /><br />This suit looks as if it is meant to punish and silence, through fear and intimidation, not only those whose names are listed on it, but ALL artists who dare to publicly question, disagree with or work in opposition to the Graphic Artists Guild. We speak out in support of open debate and for greater accountability from all groups who claim to represent our interests both here and abroad.<br /><br />At a time when we artists are facing serious challenges this lawsuit from an organization supporting artists’ rights is a misguided distraction our community cannot afford.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">We respectfully call upon the Graphic Artists Guild to immediately withdraw its lawsuit against the Illustrators Partnership of America (IPA), and the following individual artists; Brad Holland, Cynthia Turner, Ken Dubrowski, executive Terrence Brown, and attorney Bruce Lehman. <br /></span><br />We ask all creators to make their voices heard NOW. If you agree that this lawsuit is wrong, then please email your name, discipline and affiliation(s) to <a href="mailto:">stopsuitpetition@me.com</a> and please ask other artists for their support. Once a sufficient number of signers have been collected we will send this petition to all interested parties.<br /><br />Respectfully,<br /><br />Daniel Vasconcellos, <br />Illustrator since 1986, GAG member 1986-2003, GAG-Boston Chapter President 1988-1990, IPA member 2000-present<br /><br />Richard A.
