Murad became the Sultan when his uncle [[Abdülaziz]] was deposed. He was highly influenced by French culture. He reigned for 93 days before being deposed on the grounds that he was mentally ill.<ref name="vomit">Palmer, Alan. ''The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire'', 1992.

Starting in the mid-1980s, Hanson's works were cast in [[bronze]]. His works are exact down to every detail; made via [[lifecasting]], the pieces created from epoxy resin or bronze, and the whole sculpture painted to faithfully resemble a living person. This combined with hand-picked wigs, clothing and accessories means that Hanson's works are perfect [[simulacra]], often fooling gallery visitors with their ordinary appearance and casual stances.


Hanson chose to sculpt working-class citizens, unremarkable people going about their business.

Both are famous for amazingly lifelike painted sculptures of average people, complete with [[hair]] and real clothes. They were called [[Verists]].

Career and style

Starting in the mid-1980s, Hanson's works were cast in bronze. His works are exact down to every detail; made via lifecasting, the pieces created from epoxy resin or bronze, and the whole sculpture painted to faithfully resemble a living person. This combined with hand-picked wigs, clothing and accessories means that Hanson's works are perfect simulacra, often fooling gallery visitors with their ordinary appearance and casual stances.

Hanson chose to sculpt working-class citizens, unremarkable people going about their business. In transforming them into highly complex works of art, he highlighted the activities and societal roles of everyday people. Duane Hanson and John DeAndrea are the two sculptors most associated with photorealism. Both are famous for amazingly lifelike painted sculptures of average people, complete with hair and real clothes. They were called Verists. Today the Australian artist Ron Mueck's work relates to Hanson and DeAndrea. Hanson is recognised as one of the most accomplished hyper-real sculptors. [2]

Collections

Hanson’s work is represented in most major modern collections. His work has been shown internationally in many important exhibitions, including two solo retrospectives at New York City's Whitney Museum in 1978 and 1998, Five Artists and the Figure at the Whitney, a solo show at London's Saatchi Gallery, the 1995 Monte Carlo Sculpture Biennale, and Pop Art: 1955–1970 at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.
