Permission (Reusing this image)	This is a two-dimensional representation of a copyrighted sculpture, statue or any other three-dimensional work of art. As such it is a derivative work of art, and per US Copyright Act of 1976, § 106(2) who owns copyright of the original has the exclusive right to authorize derivative works. Per § 107 it is believed that reproduction for criticism, comment, teaching and scholarship constitutes fair use and does not infringe copyright. It is believed that the use of a picture to illustrate the three-dimensional work of art in question, to discuss the artistic genre or technique of the work of art or to discuss the artist or the school to which the artist belongs on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use as well as copyright information on the original artwork.

[edit] Fair Use Rationale

The building depicted in part in this image might still be copyrighted by its architect Pier Luigi Nervi, but use of this image to illustrate related articles on wikipedia is believed to qualify as fair use under U.S. copyright law.

While the Pirelli Tower itself is still protected in Italy (architect Pier Luigi Nervi died in 1979), this image shows only the damage to the building after the 2002-plane crash. Use of this image in articles about this event and eventually about aviation accidents should qualify as Fair use. As to my knowledge this is the only wikimedia-available image of this event. (Nearly) All images of the Pirelli Tower have been deleted from Commons recently.
