| Description |
Sculpture by Barbara Cooper, Cyclus (wood and glue, 44" x 46" x 26", 1994). The image illustrates an early stage an early stage and body of work in Barbara Cooper's career that began in the late 1980s, in which she created sculptural works by methodically bending and layering wood veneer in loose, interlaced weaves that created undulating, penetrable "skins" or shell-like armor around hollow, biomorphic cores that took forms such as cocoons, spirals, bulbs, vessels or nests.

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating an early stage and body of work in Barbara Cooper's career beginning in the late 1980s, which focused on sculptural works created by methodically bending and layering wood veneer in loose, interlaced weaves to form undulating, penetrable "skins" or shell-like armor that took on biomorphic forms such as cocoons, spirals, bulbs, vessels or nests. This work connected to the greater ecological whole through its life cycle of extraction from nature, industrial processing and discard, and transformation into organic aesthetic forms and blurred boundaries between the natural and cultural, romantic and rational. 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 key, developmental phase in her work, which attracted exhibition selections in traveling shows, national reviews, and museum acquisitions. Cooper's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
