Description

Sculpture by Katy Schimert, Moon Rocks (terra-cotta with platinum luster, each piece approximately 7–10", 1994). The image illustrates an early stage and body of work in Katy Schimert's career in the 1990s when she produced ceramic sculpture, exhibited in installations of diverse media. These forms contributed to elusive narratives involving romance, alienated sensuality, cosmic themes and hero archetypes developed around mythical and historical figures, in this case, notions of the moon and the female and the astronaut Neil Armstrong respectively. Her sculpture—often abstract but biomorphic—was handwrought with iridescent and metallic glazes and focused on the artmaking process and materials. This work and similar works have been publicly exhibited in prominent venues, discussed in major art journals and daily press publications, and acquired by museums.

Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a stage and body of work in Katy Schimert's career in the 1990s: her early ceramic sculpture, which appeared in exhibitions and installations alongside diverse media and combined to form elusive narratives involving romance, alienated sensuality, myth and hero archetypes developed around mythical and historical figures. Her sculpture—often abstract but biomorphic—was handwrought and used iridescent and metallic glazes. 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 stage in her career, which brought early recognition through exhibitions in major venues and coverage by critics in major publications and books. Schimert's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article.
