  1. Hi. My name is Sharlene Brown, and this is compared
  2. to World.
  3. Take a few seconds to think about what comes to
  4. your mind when I say the word change.
  5. Do you think of all humanity?
  6. Hastey adaptations are possibly irritation.
  7. Change is a concept that effects us all in different
  8. ways. Yet to what extent Duane Hanson is an artist
  9. that ponders this question and represents it through his creation
  10. of hyper realistic sculptures, Hansen created sculptures that take a
  11. critical eye toe are common reality of humanity.
  12. We can observe this critique in two of Hanson's art
  13. installations. Queenie and Executive Hansen elevates our perception of the
  14. human experience and suggest that we all have varying experiences
  15. which is affected by the environment surrounding us.
  16. During the 19 eighties, Hansen brought to our attention three
  17. crises that were impacting his character in Queenie, too.
  18. He comments on the rising obesity crisis, ginger and equality
  19. and race in relation to occupation.
  20. In addition, to bring transparency to these crises, Hansen also
  21. exposes other struggles that occurred in the early 19 seventies.
  22. Through his installation executive Hansen utilizes this insulation.
  23. Thio illustrate the crisis of bureaucracy in the workplace.
  24. Intersectionality between work life and personal life and the economic
  25. recession here is queen, too.
  26. Let's take a look at Queenie stature in size.
  27. The character in Queenie to is depicted as overweight.
  28. In addition, she is enveloped by many different items that
  29. are required to do her job.
  30. One perspective of queens wait is that Queen ease Wait
  31. represents the burdens that she carries around day to day.
  32. This was a perception that was made by the museum
  33. Vanda Wedge in 2017 during the 19 eighties, the obesity
  34. rights began to double in proportion since the 19 sixties,
  35. especially among the black in Latin.
  36. Next community.
  37. This was a report completed by David S.
  38. Freeman of the C.
  39. D. C.
  40. In 2000 and 11.
  41. Hansen could be suggesting commentary on the rising obesity rate
  42. during this era.
  43. He may be also suggesting that the characters human experience
  44. is affected by the actions of others while she's working
  45. and when she is not.
  46. Thus representing her weight, which illustrates her added burden from
  47. others. 22 is also a representation of the gender inequality
  48. crisis. The character in Queenie to is a woman and
  49. women held more domesticated roles in the work force, such
  50. as cleaning, cooking or clerical jobs.
  51. Based on the census data collected by the University of
  52. Minnesota, she was given many tasks toe oversee, but she
  53. has not paid much or given any recognition.
  54. Queenie fits in the category of women who are underpaid
  55. and underappreciated, based off of the analysis by Craig Upright.
  56. Discussing the varying pay gaps between women and men, Hanson
  57. is exposing the gender inequality in the workplace and how
  58. women are responsible for a conglomerate of our workforce but
  59. are not recognized for the work that they dio.
  60. Another present physical picture of Queenie is that she is
  61. depicted as a black woman.
  62. She is a picture as a black woman who was
  63. working in a janitorial role based off of the census.
  64. Data collected by the University of Minnesota, Black and Brown
  65. Americans are disproportionately position in a central jobs such as
  66. Queen Ease.
  67. She is a part of the many black and brown
  68. individuals that hold essential jobs to maintain, are commonplace in
  69. the United States but are not recognized.
  70. Hansen, maybe illustrating how Queens life experiences are impacted because
  71. she is black and she is contained to a work
  72. position that does not allow her to grow or express
  73. all of her talents and qualifications.
  74. Here is a depiction of executive made in 1971.
  75. When viewing this insulation, we can observe the depiction of
  76. bureaucracy in the workplace.
  77. But before we get into this, we need to define
  78. what bureaucracy is best on.
  79. The definition coined by Britannica bureaucracy is the definition off
  80. specified form of organization, which is classified in the complexity
  81. division of labor, hierarchal division or strict cane of command.
  82. We can observe the character holding his briefcase tightly, which
  83. could be an indication of how stringent his place of
  84. work. Maybe they may hold a very strict order, whereas
  85. the character is forced to carry around his work at
  86. all times.
  87. Hanson may be commenting on the commonality, which is created
  88. from implementing bureaucratic division in labor force and how the
  89. character must adhere to his professional archetype at all times.
  90. Let's observe the way the character is positioned in the
  91. chair he is setting, and we can observe that the
  92. character is sitting in a reptile position, but his leg
  93. slightly distance from each other with 1 ft in front
  94. of the other.
  95. However, what makes this odd is that he seems like
  96. he's ready to go.
  97. He seems like he's ready to stand up at any
  98. moment in any time.
  99. He is not illustrated.
  100. Rest really.
  101. He carries heavy bags under his eyes, and he nods
  102. in his share.
  103. As he sleeps, he is holding his briefcase tightly.
  104. Although he is not a work, we can say he
  105. is not a work because he has his tie tucked
  106. in his trench coat on, Hanson is able to depict
  107. the intersectionality of one's work, life and their personal life
  108. through his depiction of the characters, disposition and the environment
  109. surrounding him.
  110. The character is clearly not able to be comfortable, though
  111. the character is shown in the comfortable surrounding, we can
  112. see that the character does not look rested.
  113. However, it may be another reason to that the character
  114. has worked tirelessly as the characters inability to stay awake.
  115. During the period of 1960 to 1975 there was a
  116. higher incidence of job growth for workers who fit under
  117. the white collar umbrella in professional and technical industries.
  118. This analysis was completed by David Rice, the character could
  119. have been affected by the economic crisis of the seventies.
  120. Since the character is depicted in the likeness of a
  121. white collar worker, we can see his depiction in his
  122. outfit specifically that he's wearing formal wear.
  123. There could be pressure from his industry to perform in
  124. an extensive level, which could have been induced from the
  125. economic crisis impacting the United States and regions around the
  126. world. Hansen was able to personify multiple non living objects
  127. to compose the reality off what it is like to
  128. be human and both installations Queenie to and executive.
  129. We can observe how Hansen represents different crises that occurred
  130. in the United States during the time off the installations
  131. release. Hansen depicts hyper realistic art sculptures that signify many
  132. different types of people, typically not illustrated in academic art.
  133. We consistently romanticized the human experience and art, but should
  134. we conduct eight romanticism as negative or positive?
  135. This raises another question.
  136. Can we be at a point of comfort ability to
  137. the point of discomfort?
  138. We should be honest with ourselves as much as possible.
  139. However, we cannot excuse the fact that we are human.
  140. Thank you for viewing this presentation, and this was comparing
  141. two worlds
