Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating an earlier period and body of work in Patrick Webb's career in the first half of the 1990s: his early "Punchinello" paintings, which reinterpreted Pulcinella—a masked, red-beaked Italian commedia dell'arte trickster or fool as a contemporary gay everyman to serve as a malleable, repeatable protagonist and surrogate in his work. These early works portrayed the character as he struggled for individuality and gay identity through rites of passage, everyday experiences, social conflict, and being a witness to and sufferer within the AIDS crisis. 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 a key developmental phase in his art, which brought early recognition from art journals and daily press publications, and later recognition from institutions and museums. Webb's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
