Non-free media information and use rationale true for Amanda Church
Description

Painting by Amanda Church, The High Life (oil on canvas, 60" x 48", 1998). The image illustrates an early period and body of work in Amanda Church's career in the 1990s, when she created essentially abstract paintings of forms described as biomorphic geometries or self-contained protozoan subjects, set these against flat, bright, monochrome backdrops. Reviewers suggest these forms hint at humanity or evoke organic things such as creamy desserts or abstracted ice cream. Church's work of this time has been publicly exhibited in prominent venues, discussed widely in national art and daily press publications.

Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating an early period and body of work in Amanda Church's career in the 1990s: her bright, largely flat, essentially abstract paintings of biomorphic geometries or self-contained protozoan forms set against monochrome backdrops, which evoke human or organic subjects. This work combines elements from representational movements such as Pop and Surrealism with an abstract modernist approach. 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 a key developmental phase in her art, which brought her initial recognition from art journals and daily press publications. Church's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article.

Replaceable?
