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.
