Irving Norman's masterpiece, "The Human Condition," from 1980, draws upon the artist's lifetime of acquired experiences and knowledge. Surviving as a volunteer fighter during the Spanish Civil War, the artist returned to the United States after the loyalist defeat. Upon his return, fervent studio practice in Half Moon Bay, California, would become his life's devotion. <br><br>The present work, a nearly 16-foot-wide triptych, is reminiscent of Hieronymus Bosch's triptych, "The Garden of Earthly Delights," c. 1510. The dystopian vision portrayed in 'The Human Condition" is a warning - a lesson from the European dictatorships Norman experienced firsthand during the 1930s. Disturbing tableaus show the darkness of humanity and the evil that can rise to prominence when humanity is at its worst. There is hope, however, in the experience of the viewer: Norman thought of his audience as the greatest hope for humankind.

文学
黑暗大都市：欧文·诺曼的社会超现实主义，ed.斯科特·希尔兹和雷日（萨克拉门托和伯克利：克罗克艺术博物馆和海迪书，2006年），第199题
1980年，欧文-诺曼的代表作《人类的境遇》，汲取了艺术家一生的后天经验和知识。艺术家在西班牙内战期间作为一名志愿军战士幸存下来，在忠义派战败后回到美国。回国后，他在加州半月湾的工作室里热衷于创作，这将成为他一生的奉献。

这幅作品是一幅近16英尺宽的三联画，让人联想到海尔尼奥姆-博世的三联画《人间乐土的花园》，约1510年。 人类的状况》中描绘的是一种警告，这是对诺曼在20世纪30年代亲身经历的欧洲独裁统治的教训。 令人不安的表象展示了人性的黑暗，以及当人类处于最坏的状态时，可能会凸显出的邪恶。 然而，在观众的体验中也有希望。诺曼认为他的观众是人类最大的希望。
