| Description |
Painting by Lucas Reiner, Himmelsleiter (tempera on canvas, 63" x 41" , 2017). The image illustrates a later career period and body of work in Lucas Reiner's career in the 2010s: his contemplative series of larger paintings exploring ephemeral phenomena, such as the after-effects of fireworks (amorphous, shadowy masses of smoke and diffusing light) or subtly modulated skies. In this case, the painting is from his "Himmelsleiter" ("Ladder to Heaven"), inspired by Berlin's heavy, gray sky as seen from his studio window there. This series of work has been publicly exhibited in prominent venues and and discussed widely in art and daily press publications. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a later career period and body of work in Lucas Reiner's career in the 2000s and 2010s, when he produced several contemplative series of larger paintings that explored ephemeral phenomena, such as the after-effects of fireworks (amorphous, shadowy masses of smoke and diffusing light) or subtly modulated, gray skies (the "Himmelsleiter" series, based on Berlin skies). These series examine themes considering materiality and surface, inner and observed worlds, and suffering, loss and transcendence. 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 period and series in his art. Reiner's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
