Arts royalties and droit de suite
The March 2008 issue of Gas Quarterly focuses on issues related to and processes involved in arts royalties across literature, design, music, theatre and visual arts. The edition looks primarily at the Australian context although many of the issues raised are relevant internationally.
The motivation for this issue partly stems from Australian pre-election announcements relating to a visual arts resale royalty scheme but questions relating to royalties have also arisen in recent debates on the commercialisation and dissemination of artistic work through digital media. The articles by Georgia Blane, Tiana Templeman and Lou Weis demystify the issues facing artists and companies related to royalties. Peter Anderson's piece on the resale royalty scheme frames the discussion around the visual arts and centres it within broader arts policy in Australia.
A list of resources in the edition aims to provide a snap-shot of the current state of play and assist in answering some of the key questions around protecting your work and benefitting from new commercial avenues.
