    TEACHER RESOURCE CURRICULUM THEMES CURRICULAR CONNECTIONS Saskatchewan Voices; Sculpture; Ceramics; GRADE 4 | CR4.2: Students will explore Saskatchewan History and Culture artist Joe Fafard’s portraits and respond by creating a visual or written work about a local person who is significant in their lives. JOE FAFARD: THE POLITICIAN Fafard’s sculpture of The Politician depicts John G. Diefenbaker, Canada ’s 13th Prime Minister. Diefenbaker was a persuasive speaker and a prairie populist who prided himself on being able to remember the names of thousands of his constituents. Fafard has skillfully captured the essence of the man who suffered election defeats for two decades before finally being elected to Parliament, achieving the leadership of his party and then the Prime Minister’s office. In The Politician Fafard presents Diefenbaker in his later years, perhaps his last campaign in 1979, striking a characteristic hands-on-hips pose. Being a man of the people was part of the Diefenbaker persona, so it would be perfectly natural for him to climb on a chair in any of the community halls in his constituency to speak to a small group of voters. With The Politician, Fafard has applied his characteristic attention to detail to the figure on the chair, which exhibits strength of character and a sense of humanity that elevates this sculpture above a portrayal of one person to become the archetypal politician. THINGS TO THINK ABOUT Do you know someone who has a pose or gesture that is unique to that person, like John Diefenbaker’s hands-on- hips pose? What does that pose or gesture say about the person? Newspaper editorial cartoonists had a wonderful time drawing Diefenbaker during his time as Prime Minister and leader of the opposition.
