Recently I took several pictures of details from sculptures of a contemporary sculputer. No one ask me to do that and the idea, my personal idea, was to give my own interpretation of his work that I like very much.
The photos are very interesting and the situation is this: I like the work I have done, a lot of people like it and ...... and also the author likes it. Yes, I had the opportunity to show it to him :-) and he also congratulated with me!
But now, I think to have a problem. I would like to make a show of this work because the work I have done is very nice indeed. However the situation for me is a bit confusing because I don't think the author will ever help me in arranging the show because he is not a photoghapher, he made the whole sculpure not only the details and he is so well known around the World that he doesn't need me!
I don't know how this situation will end up and, in the case, what the show title will be. However the questions are valid: Am I infringing copyright rights of the author? Can I use this pictures for the show or for selling?
Many thanks
