| Description |
Quilted Teapot #1 by Nancy Selvin (ceramic, mixed media, 5.875" x 7.5" x 7.25", 1978; Smithsonian American Art Museum collection). The image illustrates a key early period in Nancy Selvin's career in the late 1970s, when she first gained recognition for intimately scaled, nonfunctional houseware forms that served as a format to explore more complex aesthetic and thematic concepts such as abstraction, form and function, and domestic rituals. This work and similar works were publicly exhibited in prominent venues and discussed in major art journals and daily press publications. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key early period in Nancy Selvin's career in the late 1970s, when she first gained recognition for intimately scaled, nonfunctional houseware forms that served as a format to explore more complex aesthetic and thematic concepts such as abstraction, form and function, and domestic rituals. This work demonstrates how her early work upended conventional ceramics traditions by with hand-built vessels by rejecting function and featuring unconventional finishes, mixed media, and trompe l'oeil details. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key developmental phase in her work and its impact. Selvin's work of this type and this work in particular gained her recognition on both coasts, was exhibited prominently, and is discussed extensively in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
