The Virtual International Authority File (VIAF) is an international authority file. It is a joint project of several national libraries and operated by the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC). The project was initiated by the German National Library and the US Library of Congress.
The aim is to link the national authority files (such as the German Name Authority File) to a single virtual authority file. In this file, identical records from the different data sets are linked together. A VIAF record receives a standard data number, contains the primary "see" and "see also" records from the original records, and refers to the original authority records. The data are made available online and are available for research and data exchange and sharing. Reciprocal updating uses the Open Archives Initiative protocol.
The file numbers are also being added to Wikipedia biographical articles and are incorporated into Wikidata.
Iakovos "Jake" (born 1966) and Konstantinos "Dinos" (born 1962) are English visual artists, often known as the Chapman Brothers. Their subject matter tries to be deliberately shocking, including, in 2008, a series of works that appropriated original watercolours by Adolf Hitler. In the mid-1990s, their sculptures were included in the YBA showcase exhibitions Brilliant! and Sensation. In 2003, the two were nominated for the annual Turner Prize but lost out to Grayson Perry. In 2013, their painting One Day You Will No Longer Be Loved III was the subject of Derren Brown's Channel 4 special, The Great Art Robbery.
Jake Chapman was born in Cheltenham and Dinos Chapman in London. Their father was an English art teacher and their mother an orthodox Greek Cypriot (hence "Jake" an anglicised diminutive of the orthodox Iakovos, and "Dinos", a typical diminutive of the orthodox Konstantinos). They were brought up in Cheltenham but moved to Hastings where they attended a local comprehensive (William Parker School). Dinos studied at the Ravensbourne College of Art (1980–83), Jake at the North East London Polytechnic (1985–88) before both together enrolled at The Royal College of Art (1988–90), when they also worked as assistants to the artists Gilbert and George.
Jake may refer to:
Adolf Hitler (20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was an Austrian-born German politician who was the leader of the Nazi Party (NSDAP), Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945, and Führer ("leader") of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945. He was effectively dictator of Nazi Germany, and was a central figure of World War II in Europe and the Holocaust.
Hitler was a decorated veteran of World War I. He joined the precursor of the NSDAP, the German Workers' Party, in 1919 and became leader of the NSDAP in 1921. In 1923, he attempted a coup in Munich to seize power. The failed coup resulted in Hitler's imprisonment, during which time he dictated his autobiography and political manifesto Mein Kampf ("My Struggle"). After his release in 1924, Hitler gained popular support by attacking the Treaty of Versailles and promoting Pan-Germanism, anti-Semitism, and anti-communism with charismatic oratory and Nazi propaganda. Hitler frequently denounced international capitalism and communism as being part of a Jewish conspiracy.
This is a partial list of artists active in Britain, arranged chronologically (artists born in the same year should be arranged alphabetically within that year).
Jake & Dinos Chapman are two of the most controversial figures in the art world. They’ve worked across a huge variety of media – from oil painting to figurines—and are consistent in their ability to cause utter outrage; whether exhibiting Adolf Hitler’s original oil paintings, desecrating rare Goyas, or crafting elaborate visions of hell complete with Ronald Macdonald on a crucifix. Due to an explosive bout of diarrhoea, Dinos was unable to join his brother on the stage, thankfully Jake did us proud (ish) by sharing a few thought on life, love and art by answering audience questions from a hat. The result, about as painful as his brothers stomach problems, but we'll let you be the judge!
This year’s Summer Exhibition co-ordinator Richard Wilson RA is exploring the theme of artistic duos. He has invited a diverse group of more than 15 international duos to exhibit their work, including the Chapman Brothers, whose work was first shown at the Royal Academy in 1997's Sensation – the exhibition that introduced a wider public to the work of the Young British Artists (YBAs). We visited artist Jake Chapman in his studio in Hackney to hear about working as a duo – and life without Dinos, since his artist brother moved to Los Angeles.

Watch the artist duo with a flair for the bizarre, Jake and Dinos Chapman, on moulding set symbols into something quite surprising, how Ronald McDonald ended up becoming a pariah, and why they prefer to offend rather than create taste. Ronald McDonald started out as an idealistic libertarian, because he offered cheap food to people who could not afford it. With time, however, the image of McDonald changed radically, and he became “the clown who lost his humour – and also responsible for the end of the world.” The irony of this drastic change is of great interest to Jake and Dinos Chapman, who like to take generic icons – such as smileys and swastikas – and twist them until they break: “We are overloading these symbolic icons to a point where they can no longer say anything.” “If you add ...

Episode 20/20 Throughout their artistic career, Jake and Dinos Chapman have returned again and again to a single artwork by the great Spanish artist Francisco de Goya. The Disasters of War are a set of 83 etchings that offer a harrowing account of the atrocities of the Peninsular War (1807-14), but for Jake Chapman they are much more than a matter of historical record. They have provided the inspiration for countless Chapman Brothers artworks across more than two decades, from model recreations and 'rectified' prints to shop mannequins and full-scale sculptures in bronze, some of which were nominated for the Turner Prize.

Unarguably one of the most influential, provocative and successful British artists of the last twenty years, Jake Chapman (alongside brother Dino as The Chapman Brothers) has played a central role in redefining art and how we think about it.

Death threats from neo-Nazis was just one of the many extreme responses to the English artist duo Jake and Dinos Chapman’s controversial and much debated exhibition of modified watercolours by Adolf Hitler. Hear their thoughts on the divisive project. When choosing to work with Hitler’s watercolours, Jake and Dinos Chapman wanted to confront the idea that a work of art can reveal something about a person – that it has a latent sense of self-expression – and why then the presence of foreboding evil is in no way represented in Hitler’s paintings: “The work is blank.” “Using My Little Pony to kick Adolf Hitler is entirely appropriate.” By adding little rainbows and other such motifs, Jake and Dinos Chapman sought not only to transgress the paintings’ metaphysical value of evil but also to a...
