When can I use work without permission from the artist?

In some cases, you may use images without permission from the artist. Based on the right to cite, someone may "quote" a work, i.e. copy all or part of a work in the context of an announcement, review, dissertation, scientific paper or similar articles. There are, however, a variety of conditions that a citation must meet for it not to constitute copyright infringement. Another exception is art in public places. Images of works of art or buildings that are on permanent display in public places may often be published or reproduced without the author's permission. It is important that the work is depicted as it can be seen in its environment. Read more about this under Copyright.
