Corporate Head - Los Angeles, California

OK... we've all been in the position of "banging our head against a brick wall", but I think this guy may have taken it just a little too far!!! (in this case... granite, not brick)
This sculpture and accompanying poem is a part of "Poet's Walk" located around the area of Figueroa Avenue and 7th Street in downtown Los Angeles. We really haven't done a lot of searching for other objects in this collection but maybe they will make future posts. This, however, caught our eye in it's own right, rather than as a part of the collection.
	If you're looking to find this guy, he's on the south side of 7th Street, just west of the intersection with Figueroa Avenue. He's there at the entrance to the office building.
We love this guy though. We KNOW that we have felt like this many, many times. Even without facial expressions, you can feel the frustration, or at least we can.
	In the photos above you can see a bronze plaque just behind the figure. This is the poem which accompanies the sculpture. The author of the poem is Philip Levine. We didn't find a website for Levine, but a Wikipedia article is here. Here's an Amazon link to works by Levine. Philip Levine at Amazon.com The artist who crafted the sculpture is Terry Allen (website).
The plaque below is placed further behind the sculpture but cites the artist and poet and provides the title and date.
By the way, not sure if we have mentioned this before, but if any of you out there have suggestions for places we should visit, PLEASE let us know. Thanks for looking. Joe
