I saw a Hanson exhibit when I was young, and his work at the time seemed hit or miss. There was a sculpture of a beachgoer in a lawn chair that was right on the money, but another early one felt more like a JCPenney mannequin.
An early janitor sculpture did have me faked out for a few seconds, because the museum staff placed him away from the exhibit, over by the elevator bank. I even asked it where the restroom was.
