Slide4

QuestionsWhy are the hogs doing that what do they gain from that small and skinny and insignificant snake there’s 5 hogs and one small snake

whats

the deal?

Is the snake dangerous?

Are these hogs wild?

Are those apples on the tree or something else?

Is there a pretentious metaphor behind this or is this just some wholesome hog on snake action?

Are they fighting over the snake?

Are they killing the snake just for

funzies

?

The hog with its tongue out looks like it wants to duke it out, is that the hogs intention?

Are hogs huge or is that tree just short?

Did someone pay money for this or was the artist just like ‘

yo

I have a great idea for an art’?Slide5

Artist Background

John

Steuart

Curry

1897-1946

Known for painting life on Kansas, his home state

Thinks Bulls are

swoleSlide6

Artist BG contIllustrated for magazines and children's books\

Studied in Kansas City, Chicago, and Paris

Regionalist style of art (art movement in America from the 1920’s to the 1950’s)

Died at 49 due to a heart attack

How many more hog gang paintings did our sweet angel never get to finish…. We will never know…. Slide7

Conclusion JSC was a cool dude, he liked farm animals and those are pretty cool

imo

.

He died young… just like

Ke$ha

had suggested

He did live a comfortable life though, he was able to make a living doing this thing he loved

He always remembered his roots, a real down home guy, just like

Dorthy

!

But most importantly, he leaves me with no choice but to believe that in Kansas, hogs are always getting together just to kill snakes. Slide8
