Q098EN - What are “variable dimensions” for a work of art?

Generally speaking, works of art are made with fixed dimensions. As a result, you will usually answer “No” to the question on the form that asks if your work has variable dimensions.

However, in some cases, the same work of art can have different dimensions.

Examples:
- An art installation may be composed of various elements that can be positioned differently on the floor or in a space. In this case, each position changes the dimensions of the work.
- Several copies of the same sculpture can be produced in different sizes.
- Several copies of the same photograph can be printed on paper of different sizes.
