Purpose of use

The installation image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key early period and body of work in David Schafer's career: his public art projects of the late 1980s and early 1990s that focused on public space, the built environment and cultural and historical tropes. In particular, this work demonstrates his recontextualizing of popular symbols (here, patriotic), commercial and educational elements, and aesthetic forms alluding to Russian Constructivist Agitprop in order to reflect on the complexities and contradictions of liberty. 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 type of art practice and the strategies it utilizes. Schafer's work of this type and this work in particular was exhibited prominently, and is discussed extensively in the article and by critics cited in the article.
