Last semester I did a group assignment in which my group and I decided to do it in this piece. The name of this piece is, “Corporate Head”, this piece is found in Downtown LA, in South Figueroa. This piece is a bronze statue of a man showing fatigue of his daily routine as a business man. This piece represents the daily life of people who deal with competition in their daily day jobs. I think the main purpose was that to show how sometime people are too involve in their jobs. This was intended for the workaholics. I think the message is clear and it doesn’t change any meaning, you could see a mean leaning from fatigue with his body downwards.

The Corporate head also has a small poem that is relating to the business man that is laying his head on the wall. I think the only problem was the location and what kind of phrase or poem to use for a clear message to the piece. The creator of this piece is a musician and artist name Terry Allen and the creator of the poem was Philip Levine. The Idea is success because my group and I decided to talk about this piece and we found it interesting. It my improve if the statue was raise a little higher and the poem was on top of the figure somewhere were is more visible.
