Epstein Busts at the Walker

man of aran by EpsteinI have to admit I'm not greatly impressed by the five portrait busts by Jacob Epstein which are on temporary display in the Walker. I suppose they're meant to be a bit abstract which does make slightly more interesting than the average true-to-life busts. But poor old 'Man of Aran (Tiger King)' for example seems to have a particularly badly fitted permed wig stuck on top of his head. The other efforts are equally uncomplimentary.
Maybe I should go to the talk next Sunday to gain a better understanding.
