No, continue Googling.
Read about sampling, about Warhol, about exhibiting exact copies of someone else's photos but labeling them "interpretations".
Your ideas about ********* and people getting locked up and or sued are extreme. Doesn't happen often.
(Walker Evans is not art? What is?)

your ignorance is astounding.
1. After Walker Evans was an exhibit by Sherri Levine where she made copies of Walker Evans photographs
2. Cammers go to jail all the damn time (or are you an expert on the scene as well now?)
3. People who make derivative works get sued all the time. Shepherd Fairey was involved in one over that Hope poster where a Judge flat out told him he would lose if he tried to fight the AP over it and that work was substantially more different than Levine's were
youre either a troll or sadly uninformed.

"Cammer"? Are you 14 years old? Tell me how many "cammers" are in jail right now.

It's a snapshot of a sign, in which the sign is the sum total of the creative work exhibited. The proper course of action isn't to turn to the law, it's to e-mail the blog owner and ask them to delete the image. If they refuse, then you can go DMCA.
While we can gnash our teeth at websites ignoring basic copyright law, this is a somewhat more complicated issue. It's understandable for a bystander to confuse the original image with one any millions of tourists take of signs and places they've visited and throw them on Flickr, because it doesn't appear to be a 'work of art.'

Not directly analogous, but we can see here where one must have an element 'of originality' in an image for it to be considered copyrightable. I'd say that the original image would be extremely shaky on those ground - it's a head-on image of a sign and trademark created and owned by someone else.

Sampling without clearance is copyright infringement and music using those uncleared samples cannot be commercially released.

feel free to do a google search.
am I 14? no. does your ignorance of the jargon of another interest make my point less valid? no. are you, in a hilarious moment of irony given that you accused someone else of doing this, putting up a strawman to distract from how utterly baseless your line of thinking is? yes.
if you're going to try and troll me, at least put some effort into it.

moof, he represented it as if people had been copying copyrighted works for commercial use.
I am perfectly aware that people take public domain work and use it as if they were the original author. Disney did it way before Levine was even born; almost all of the early movies were lifted directly from Scandanavian folk tails.
and Im well aware that it was Sherrie Levine we were talking about, seeing as that was who we were talking about.

This is kinda like the Stolen Scream in a way if you have heard of it. Not a lot you can do but I found Noam's perspective on it interesting. He is everywhere.
There is no absolute truth. I have seen both the true poor [and I do donate when I can] and those that play the system. It is what it is.
