Our analyses at the museum were based on our own personal reactions and perspectives toward the sculpture because we did not, at the moment, take into consideration any historical information about the piece. Our analyses took into account the sculpture’s physical appearance, the meaning that the sculptor might have intended through artistic and stylistic choices, such as the black tie against a white body, the representation of the drastic differences in the dress, and other factors spoken of in the video.
Had we had more time, we could have paid more attention to details themselves, such as the intention of the piece and its actual meaning in a modern world. Also, what the art intended in regards to an all-encompassing theme drawn between modern society and its capitalistic inclinations, and the nature of the man within.
