Whether you’re an artist looking to license your work or a business seeking to use art in your projects, understanding the difference between rights in the artistic work and the physical piece is crucial. Our expert team is here to guide you through the complexities of art licensing to ensure your creations are properly protected and your rights are safeguarded.
Art licensing involves granting permission to use your artwork under specific terms and conditions. It’s not just about the physical piece of art but also about the rights associated with the artistic work itself.
Here’s how it breaks down:
If you want to license the copyright within your artwork to someone else, clearly specify the scope of the license. eg, how long will the license go for? What exactly will the licensee be able to use the copyright for? (be as specific as possible)
