| Description |
Sculpture by Lynn Aldrich, Breaker (steel, wood, fiberglass, and garden hoses, 36" x 32" x 50", 1999. Collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art). The image illustrates a mature body of work in Lynn Aldrich's career that began in the late 1990s, in which she re-contextualized common consumer objects—in this series, garden hoses, using their aqua-to-green hues like pigments and suggesting allusions to water, poised snakes in paradise, suburban backyards, and abstract stripe paintings, among others. This work and similar works have been publicly exhibited in prominent art venues, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications by prominent critics, and acquired by museums. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a mature body of work in Lynn Aldrich's career that began in the late 1990s, in which she mixed low-end, near-garish consumer products, minimalist form and spiritual, scientific and metaphysical allusions. In this particular series, she re-contextualized common garden hoses, using their aqua-to-green hues like pigments and suggesting allusions to water, poised snakes in paradise, suburban backyards, and abstract stripe paintings, among others. 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 major phase and body of work in her career, which attracted inclusion in major exhibitions, national reviews, and museum acquisitions. Aldrich's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
