Fair Use Rationale for Robert Watts (artist)

edit
  1. The image is of a work of art, made by Robert Watts. It shows the early influence of pop, as discussed at Ruthers, whilst showing clear tendencies toward fluxus in which the artist made his reputation
  2. Work by this artist is rare and obscure, and I am not aware of any book that specifically reviews his career. Similarly, his non-fluxus work is even more obscure than his fluxboxes, and an example of this enormously helps the article's overall scope.
  3. It is accepted in US copyright that articles on historically important artists, such as Watts, should be illustrated with key works. This is one such key work, central to an understanding of his development. This is part of a series of articles I am contributing to about Fluxus in an attempt to widen understanding and interest in a much discussed but widely misunderstood and obscured movement.
  4. There is no alternative, public domain or free-copyrighted replacement available.
  5. Inclusion is for information, education and analysis only.
  6. Its inclusion in the article(s) adds significantly to the article(s) because it shows the subject, or the work of the subject, of the article(s).
  7. The image is a low resolution copy of the original work of such low quality that it would be unlikely to impact sales of the work.
  8. Ultimately © Estate of Robert Watts.
