Idan Zareski
Bigfoot 100 (with Red Pants)

2019

About the Item

Signed and numbered limited edition number 1 of 8. Idan Zareski is a French-Israeli artist born in Haifa, Israel. Life would take him through many countries, bearing witness to diverse cultures, which are now a fundamental element in his work. Idan has never attended art school - instead, his gift came to him as a need, which he understood he could no longer resist. "I don't plan or organize, I don't draw sketches. My raw emotions serve as the only guide. Ninety percent of my creations are shaped in less than an hour. When I work, I feel absolute communion with a force greater than myself." Idan Zareski's infamous Bigfoot exemplifies these themes. With its African roots and Latin American genealogy, Bigfoot is a peaceful call for hope and unity among the human race. His huge feet evoke the foundation of our past, our anchor to this small, fragile planet. Though they carry the heavy baggage of mass deportation, forced labor, slavery, and abuse that countless cultures suffered through history, these big feet remind us that we are all from the same small world.

  • Dawn - 9/398
    By Carole A. Feuerman
    Located in Miami, FL
    Painted bronze with stone base. Limited and signed edition number 9 of 398. Carole A. Feuerman (born 1945) is an American sculptor and author working in Hyperrealism. She is one of the three major artists credited with starting the movement in the late 1970s. She is the only woman to sculpt in this style. Her career is highlighted by iconic figurative works of swimmers and dancers. She has been included in exhibitions at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Portrait Gallery; the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia; the Venice Biennale; and Palazzo Strozzi Palace in Florence, Italy, among others. Growing up in New York, Feuerman was deterred from being an artist. She attended Hofstra University, Temple University, and graduated from the school of Visual Arts in New York City to begin her career as an illustrator. During the early 1970s she went by the artist’s name Carole Jean, illustrating for The New York Times and creating album covers for Alice Cooper and the Rolling Stones. In 1981, Feuerman was chosen by a jury at the Heckscher Museum in Long Island where she exhibited. After this she was invited to participate in the ‘Learning through the Arts Program’ at the Guggenheim Museum. Feuerman received the Charles D. Murphy Sculpture Award in 1981. In 1982 she received the Amelia Peabody Award for sculpture. In 2016, she received Best in Show Award for her sculpture ‘Mona Lisa’ by the Huan Tai Museum. The sculpture was acquired for their permanent collection. Feuerman has also been awarded the Medici Prize by the City of Florence, First Prize at the Beijing Biennale, and the Austrian Biennale, and in 2008 she received First Prize in the Olympic Fine Art exhibition in Beijing. The piece was acquired by the Olympic Museum. She has taught, lectured, and given workshops at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Solomon Guggenheim Museum. In 2011, she founded the Carole A. Feuerman Sculpture Foundation. Her artworks are owned by eighteen museums, as well as in the collections of the City of Peekskill, New York, the City of Sunnyvale California, President and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation, Dr. Henry Kissinger, the Mikhail Gorbachev Art Foundation, Mr. Steven A. Cohen, Alexandre Grendene Bartelle, and the Malcolm Forbes Magazine Collection...
