Eric Weiss · Answer 1

The Bird in Space by Constantin Brancusi represents a bird without its wings, feathers and the head and tail were reduced to an oval shape, the body was also elongated. This is to represent simplicity and what something would look like if stripped from everything and reduced to the simplest representation.

The Wild Turkey by James Audubon was made to make people inquire about the turkey's importance, its migration patterns, why it walks more than it flies considering that it is a bird.
