: Ukraine ''has freedom of panorama''. There is no direct implication of this concept in the legislative documents but it is widely recognized by the court practice. The most close legislative provision is provided by Article 21(4) of the Law on copyright and related rights.
:Ukrainian copyright law does not contain any exceptions for reproductions of works in public places. Architectural works (plans, models, and actual buildings, §8(1)(9) and §8(1)(12)) as well as a statues and sculptures (§8(1)(8); definition of "work of fine art" in §1) are objects of copyright. The author holds&mdash;amongst other rights&mdash;the exclusive rights to reproduction, public display, and communication to the public (§15). Architectural and sculptural works are in no way treated differently than other kinds of works in Ukrainian law.
: This rule provides that «''it shall be permitted without the consent of the author (or other copyright holder) and with mandatory indication of the author's name and of the source of borrowing: ... to reproduce, in order to highlight current events by means of photography or cinematography, to carry out public notification or other public communication of the works seen or heard in the course of such events to the extent justified by the informational purpose''».
