About DACS

Art licensing expertise for museums and galleries

For over 40 years, DACS has worked with museums, galleries and cultural organisations to license visual art responsibly and with confidence. As a not for profit organisation, we promote best practice in copyright and help institutions use artworks correctly while ensuring artists are properly credited and paid.

Supporting exhibitions, publishing and retail

We support museums and galleries with their licensing projects, including exhibition catalogues, marketing and merchandise. Our experienced team manages rights clearance and permissions from start to finish, providing clarity, saving time and reducing risk.

Licensing support for museum and gallery collections

As well as representing artists and estates, through DACS Images, our image licensing service, we can manage the licensing of works in collections on your behalf. This supports museums and galleries to generate income, reduce administrative burden and work with confidence that permissions, fees and payments are handled fairly and transparently.
