Description
Believing "work should raise questions," Terry Allen sculpts bronze businessmen that are known for their tongue-in-cheek social commentaries. With a tie covering his eyes, fingers in his ears, and a shoe in his mouth, this realistic figure atop his briefcase blocks out the world around him. He represents no one and everyone, attracting as many interpretations as there are people crossing the courtyard he stands in. The implications are endless. Ask yourself: How good is modern communication?...
