"Resale Royalty Response by Art Sector

The passage through parliament of the long awaited Resale Royalty Right for Visual Artists Bill 2008 was today welcomed in principle by The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA), the peak body representing the sector in Australia.

The great majority of Australian artists and their representative organisations (including NAVA), had warmly welcomed the Government’s commitment to the introduction of this legislation as part of its election platform in 2007.

Most of the main features of the model in the new legislation match those called for by artists including the rate being 5% on all secondary sales made through a market intermediary, its being uncapped, the low entry threshold of $1000 and its duration being the same as for copyright.

The visual arts community is gratified that this legislation provides another means by which artists can earn income from their art practice, similar to the royalty entitlements enjoyed by writers and composers. It also affirms artists’ on-going relationship with their work and the value of art as a shared community asset."
