About the Item

Silkscreen on canvas with diamond dust. Hand signed, dated, and numbered on verso by the artist. Edition of 25. Canvas is stretched. Artwork is in excellent condition. Certificate of authenticity included. All reasonable offers will be considered. About the Artist: Carole A. Feuerman is an American Hyper-Realist sculptor. Along with artists like Duane Hanson and John DeAndrea, she focuses on figurative sculptures executed with a startlingly high degree of realism. Known for her sensuous themes of swimmers and bathers, complete with translucent water drops, her work takes the concept of art imitating life to a new level. “My work tell stories,” the artist has explained. “Sometimes they are stories I want to tell, and sometimes they are my stories from my life experiences. They are stories about balance, perseverance, survival.” Executed in painted resin with tactile flesh and meticulous detail, they display both contemporary and Classical influences, including Auguste Rodin and Edgar Degas. Feuerman has also developed a highly original technique of sculpting with molten metal, creating multi-layered, organic bronzes influenced by action painting. Born in 1945 in Hartford, CT, she received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York. Today, her works are in the collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, the El Paso Museum of Art, and the Bass Museum of Art in Miami, among others. Notably, she is also represented in many prestigious private collections around the world, including in the collection of the Emperor of Japan, and President Bill Clinton and Secretary Hillary Clinton. Feuerman lives and works in New York, NY.

Carole Feuerman

Carole A. Feuerman is acknowledged, alongside Duane Hanson and John D’Andrea, as one of the three major American hyperrealist sculptors that started the movement in the 1970s. Feuerman’s career spans over four decades and four continents. At the heart of her sculptures are visual stories of strength, survival, and balance.

Feuerman has taught, lectured, and given workshops at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon Guggenheim Museum, Columbia University and Grounds for Sculpture.

In 2011, she founded the Carole A. Feuerman Sculpture Foundation. Feuerman has had solo museum retrospectives at the El Paso Museum in Texas, the Huan Tai Hu Museum of Jiangsu Province in China, the Amarillo Art Museum, the Tampa Museum of Art, the Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art, the Queensborough Community College Art Gallery – CUNY and the Queens Museum. In 2013, her sculpture The General’s Daughter was exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.

In 2007, Feuerman had a solo exhibition in Venice called "Bellezza E Beressaze: By the Sea" in the Venice Biennale, curated by John T. Spike, featuring her monumental sculpture Survival of Serena for the first time. In 2008, Survival of Serena was chosen "Best in Show" at the Beijing Biennale and was exhibited at the National Museum of China. In 2013, Survival of Serena was chosen by the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation for exhibition in Soho, New York. In 2017 it was exhibited in Central Park for the department's celebration of the 50th anniversary of the "Art in the Parks" program.

Currently Feuerman has nine monumental sculptures in Paris on the Champs- Élysées and Avenue George V. Her iconic sculptures Catalina and The General’s Daughter are traveling in a group show titled "50 Years of Hyperrealistic Sculpture." The show originated in 2016 at Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao, Spain. It then traveled to the Academia de Bellas Artes in Madrid, to the Marco Museo de Arte Contemporáneo in Monterrey and more.

Feuerman's art is included in the collections of former President Bill Clinton and former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation, Dr. Henry Kissinger and more.

Feuerman’s selected awards include the 2001 Lorenzo il Magnifico Award for the Biennale Internazionale: Dell’Arte Contemporanea in Florence, Italy; the Prize of Honor in 2002 for the Ausstellungszentrum Heft in Huttenberg, Austria; and the Medici Prize awarded by the City of Florence. There are four full-color monographs written about her work.
