Robert Arneson- Mackenzi Pereira

Robert Arneson, also known as the father of Funk Art, was an American sculptor and ceramicist. He abandoned the manufacturing of functional ceramics and instead made nonfunction sculptures. He is best known for the Egghead series, which was sculptures of faces. These heads made statements that were seen as confrontational at the time. Each of his head sculptures closely resembles the inspired person and was seen as an autobiography for that person. This piece above is one of Robert Arneson's sculptures. I really liked how subtle the face is. Some of his other sculptures have an obvious face etched in, but this one is more subtle.
