Description

Painting by Xiaoze Xie, June-August 2008, G.Z.R.B. (oil on canvas, 80" x 93", 2010). The painting illustrates a Xiaoze Xie's signature newspaper paintings, first painted in the late 1990s and ongoing, for which he is well-known. Depicting library stacks of consecutive, folded newspapers in a quasi-realistic manner, they capture the chaotic, fleeting nature of the periodical—its immediacy and urgency, waning as yesterday's news, and relentless accumulation throughout the world. This work and similar works were publicly exhibited in prominent venues worldwide, 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 a signature body of work Xie's career, first developed in late 1990s: his large-scale, close-up images of stacks of consecutive, folded newspapers from around the world, which explore the chaotic, fleeting nature of the periodical—its immediacy and urgency, waning as yesterday's news, and relentless accumulation throughout the world. These works, which furthered his reputation in the 2000s, have been noted by critics for range from monochromatic images of nearly-abstract horizontal patterning to colorful, collage-like bands of images and text that collapse slivers of distinct events into surreal, ad hoc narratives about war, tragedy, power and national identity. 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.
