Robert Arneson

Robert Arneson was known as an American sculptor and professor of ceramics. He is remembered as the father of Funk Art. His work can be found in major institutions around Washington, D.C., the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C. I picked the sculpture above because I found it to be humorous. I feel like the tongue out and fingers in the ear makes this artwork interesting to look at. In my opinion, Arneson's sculpture is amazing, it has great details and looks very realistic.
