QuoteJeremy Gordon is not the first nor last plastic shaman. Turn over a shit-stained rock and you'll find the likes of Gordon squirming underneath it. But, the shake-and-bake appropriation doesn't end there. Gordon produces colorful posters to advertise his sundances and ceremonies. In this recent poster for an April 24, 2024 sundance ceremony, he has obviously violated the intellectual property of Oscar Howe. Note that he slyly has cropped out Howe's signature which, in the original, is located in the lower right corner of the painting. Gordon operates outside the U.S. He holds his ceremonies in Mexico, South America, and Western Europe. Apparently, he feels safe from copyright infringement. I wonder how the Howe estate would react to Gordon's infringement and if they have any legal recourse to take against Gordon.
