Thinker on a Rock is a bronze sculpture done by Welsh sculptor Barry Flanagan. It is in the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden, which is the mjost recent addition to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C in the United States.
Reacting against the formal, constructed metal sculpture that predominated when he was in art school, Barry Flanagan explored painting, dance, and installation pieces. He has produced an inventive and varied body of work filled with humor and poetic associations, often evoked by the partiicular organic materials he employed. In Thinker on a Rock, the artist substitutes his signature hare for Rodin's Thinker (1880), making a witty and irrelevent reference to one of the world's best-known sculptures.
