Frequently asked questions

How can I reproduce works from MoMA’s collection for editorial publication?

Images from MoMA´s exhibitions and other programs or news announcements are available for non-commercial editorial press usage in conjunction with the Museum’s exhibitions, activities, and programs. By downloading images you are agreeing to the following permissions: Images are provided exclusively to the press, and only for purposes of publicity of The Museum of Modern Art’s and MoMA PS1’s current and upcoming exhibitions, programs, and news announcements. Permission to use images is granted only to the extent of the Museum’s and MoMA PS1’s ownership rights relating to those images—the responsibility for any additional permissions remains solely with the party reproducing the images. The images must be accompanied by the credit line and any copyright information as it appears above, and the party reproducing the images must not distort or mutilate the images.

If you need to reproduce works from the MoMA collection for other purposes, The Museum of Modern Art has entrusted the licensing of images of works of art in its collections to Scala Archives of Florence, Italy. All requests within North America (Canada, U.S., Mexico) should be addressed directly to Art Resource, Scala’s New York representative at (212) 505-8700; requests@artres.com, or www.artres.com. Requests from all other geographical locations should be addressed directly to Scala Group S.p.A., at 39 055 6233 200, firenze@scalarchives.com, scalarchives.it.
