Week 3- Ron Mueck's sculpture and Humanism
Mask II (2002) Ron Mueck
A girl (2006) Ron Mueck
1. Mueck's sculpture is described as 'hyper-real'. Define the meaning of this term and apply it to his work.
hyper-real or in other words Hyperreality, is an inability to distinguish between what is real and what is not
2. Mueck is not interested in making life size sculpture. Find out why he is more interested
in working with the scale of the figure which is not life size, and mention 2 works which use
scale that is either larger or smaller than life.
Boy, 1999, fiberglass and silicon
This boy is just about the same scale as a golem and from this angle it looks as it is scared and in shock. With his big eyes. It portrays vulnerability with its pose, almost like a child who is afraid of being beaten.
Untitled ( Big Man), 2000
in this photo Mueck’s sculptur leaves the viewers to stand and wonder the feelings of this big man striped down and showing a passive emotion and the texture of the body showing use the full image of our brutal honesty.
