Scenario:
An instructor would like to take digital photographs of paintings, sculptures, or architectural works and share them with her class.

Response:
Works of art and architecture that are not in the public domain may still be available to copy in the form of a photographic image. Photographic reproductions are generally lower-quality and would not likely compete in the same market as the original (if they do, as might be the case with reproducing photographs or digital images, use would likely not be permitted). When deciding if and how to use photographic reproductions of works of art, you should conduct a four-factor fair use analysis for each reproduction.

Also, remember that peoples' faces may not appear in photographs that will be publicly displayed without a signed release. The University's Office of the General Counsel maintains an online Standard Contracts Library, which offers the standard form, Release Photographic Likeness Use. If this form is not what you're looking for, feel free to contact the Office of the General Counsel directly.
