| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a signature body of work Xie's career, first developed in early 1990s: his labor-intensive, large-scale, close-up images of shelved library books from around the world, which explore the architectural quality of rows and stacks and the conceptual potential of books as material carriers of ideology, cultural memory and history. These works, which brought him attention in the early 2000s, have been noted by critics for their soft, brushy, almost impressionistic technique, capturing of ethereal light, texture and shadow, and interesting departures from the still-life tradition. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key, longstanding body of work, its reception and impact. Xie's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
