Andrew Lih has plans to get in touch with LACMA, related to his wiki video project [1]. He made this recently: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Metropolis_II-Chris_Burden-LACMA-720...

My contacts at LACMA have all left the organization. I'm going to be meeting with some folks from the Getty this weekend, and in a few more weeks in Pasadena. I might see who would be a good contact to ping at LACMA through them.
Thanks Pete for sharing this.

Hi all,
[[User:Tedder]] pointed out to me that the Los Angeles County Museum of Art has recently expanded the number of images it serves up free on its web site, that it believes are in the public domain, from a 2000 file experiment launched two years ago to now almost 20,000 files.

Is anybody in our world working with them? A mass upload (either in partnership or independently) seems like a good idea. In addition, their TOU indicates that they attach an NC provision to reuse of files to which they hold copyright; so there might be an opportunity for some anti-NC advocacy there as well.
