Description |
Painting by Andrew Spence, Swivel Chairs (oil on canvas, 84" x 60", 1988). The image illustrates an earlier stage and body of work in Andrew Spence's mature career from the 1980s when he produced idiosyncratic, minimalist, limited-color paintings of singular, iconic images that referenced common objects, architecture or modernist furniture—in this case, the well-known Charles Eames armchair design, seen from overhead. Critics characterize these works by their quirky humor, observed-world associations, and varied, textured surfaces, which appear quite differently in person versus reproduction. This work and similar works have been publicly exhibited in prominent venues, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications, and acquired by museums. |

Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating an earlier stage and body of work in Andrew Spence's mature career from the mid-1980s to 1990s: his minimalist paintings of singular, iconic images in limited colors that referenced common objects, architecture or modernist furniture. These works have been related to related to predecessors such as Constructivism, Malevich and Ellsworth Kelly and to contemporary movements such as Neo-Geo, but are differentiated by their quirky sense of humor and association, personal imagery, populist interest in vernacular design and the breakdown of high-low distinctions, and densely worked surfaces. Spence's real-life inspirations and eccentric perspectival views in these works often were apparent only through the picture titles. 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 phase of his career, which brought widespread recognition through exhibitions in major venues, coverage by major critics in publications and books, and museum acquisitions. Spence's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
