Duane Hanson, born in Alexandria, Minnesota, is known for his
ultra-realistic sculpture depicting ordinary people going about their
daily-life activities such as mowing lawns, sitting at tables, playing
games, etc. His concepts relate to Pop Art in that mundane
objects/people are treated as though they have worth and artistic
merit, and to Photo-Realism because his figures are deceptively real in
appearance.
Hanson was nearly forty-years old before finding the method and subje (showing 500 of 7047 characters). |
