Photographer Sugimoto strikes a Stone Age deal with U2

"Just two minutes into an interview with artist Hiroshi Sugimoto, it became clear why the famously discreet 61-year-old had agreed to talk about rock band U2's use of one of his photographs on the cover of their latest album, "No Line on the Horizon."

Full story here..

Damn, I hope this isn't a trend.
I'm working on a deal with a foreign corporation to use an image in their marketing of a new product. I can't afford a "stone age" deal........

wow! Thanks for the link... This guy must not like money. I did an album cover that went gold and got $7500, so a disc that's bound to go multi-platinum? That was easily $20k to $50k worth of photo there.
