I was mostly intrigued that Anthropologie does this. (They didn’t do as a good a job as me though). :)
I’d love to invite you to my show. It’s at the Center for Book Arts, NY, opening reception 6-8pm on January 15th. I hope you can make it. I like to think of myself as a conservator of books also.

I’d like to see it. I doubt there is anything legal you can do, ethically, however….

I came across this site accidently–lately there have been lots of blogs popping up about my book art. I was not familiar with Anthropologie ripping off artists’ works until now, and was rather surprised to see this, and amazed that they have an apparent history of doing this with artists. Can I prove that they ripped me off? It’s a hard one to prove. It could be coincidental even though the process of wetting the books in particular is very specific to my process as well as a body of work that I made back in 2001 (see VOLUMES on my website http://www.jacquelinerushlee.com). Maybe if Anthropologie is getting a reputation for this perhaps they should cite the artists just to be gracious.
I will actually be having a solo exhibition of my work in NY this January that will feature some of my Volumes pieces. I’ll send Anthropologie one of my postcard announcements…..
