Comments on the reproduction and reuse of public domain works, touching on the issue of ‘artistic’ reuse of works more in general. Elaborating critically on ‘the culture of permission’, in this piece the author focuses on how reuse is achievable only under certain limited conditions, worthy to be investigated. The author hence explores the extent to which the EU legal framework is concerned with incentivising the economic exploitation of public domain materials and maps out the legal and policy measures adopted by an important heritage institution in Venice, the MUVE (Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia, a private entity responsible for eleven Venetian museums), proposing two main case studies – the Natural history Museum of Venice and the Historical Archives of Contemporary Arts of the Venice Biennale (ASAC).

Abstract
Comments on the reproduction and reuse of public domain works, touching on the issue of ‘artistic’ reuse of works more in general. Elaborating critically on ‘the culture of permission’, in this piece the author focuses on how reuse is achievable only under certain limited conditions, worthy to be investigated. The author hence explores the extent to which the EU legal framework is concerned with incentivising the economic exploitation of public domain materials and maps out the legal and policy measures adopted by an important heritage institution in Venice, the MUVE (Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia, a private entity responsible for eleven Venetian museums), proposing two main case studies – the Natural history Museum of Venice and the Historical Archives of Contemporary Arts of the Venice Biennale (ASAC).
