Fair use rationale for Bulldozer Exhibition [edit]

While the reproduction of the painting is not free I believe that using of its low quality reproduction in the Bulldozer Exhibition exhibition article constitutes fair use as define by the copyright law of the USA:

• The image is used for the critical commentary of the style used in the famous exhibition
• The quality is low, precluding most of the commercial application
• There is no possibility to provide a free sample of the art exhibited on the Bulldozer Exhibition as it is all copyrighted, Oscar Rabine was one of the most prominent authors on the exhibition
