From Rhizome Artbase
Chris Reilly is a Chicago-based visual artist who has established a successful artistic practice that relies on the exclusive use of found images and photographs, many of which come from unauthorized or copyrighted sources such as homepages, stock photo catalogs, and the houses of friends and family. While there has been no litigation thus far against Chris Reilly or any of his artwork, the Don't Sue Chris Reilly Campaign feels that, considering the current legal and political climates, there is a threat significant enough to Chris Reilly's continued practice to warrant preemptive action.
