Sculpture by Lynn Aldrich, 'Bouquet (steel, downspouts, plastic flex elbow, leaf exterior enamel and roof shingles, 28" x 19" x 12", 2009. Collection of the Ahmanson Art Gallery, Irvine). The image illustrates a later, mature body of work in Lynn Aldrich's career from the late 2000s, in which she explored metaphors involving water, thirst and longing in works using galvanized steel rain gutters whose meaning (and punning titles) balanced between formal object, suburban vernacular and metaphor. 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 later, mature body of work in Lynn Aldrich's career from the late 2000s—as well as an example of a smaller scale work—in which she explored metaphors involving water, thirst and longing in works whose meaning (and punning titles) balanced between formal object, suburban vernacular and metaphor. These works frequently used using galvanized steel rain gutters, often upending their function to suggest wide-ranging allusions: a multi-headed hydra, cacti, springs, rain, organ pipes, and in this case, flowers. 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.
