"Transcendent" Dimensions: 19" x 11" x 9" Medium: Clear Acrylic Resin Edition 96/350 Frederick Hart's 1991 “Transcendent” lucite sculpture is imbued with a truly sublime presence. Female and male figures emerging from the Lucite seem to appear and disappear within the work. This ghostly effect is created through Hart’s unique process of embedment, which involves casting one acrylic work within another. It is a technique the artist patented in 1982, marking the end of a decade of constant experimentation and progression and the beginning of a period of precise refinement. Consistent with his unique poetic vision, the inner, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual forces dominate the work. Imbued with a distinct sense of grace, this piece is a testament to Hart’s remarkable technical abilities and devotion to the craft. Frederick Hart's "Transcendent" is signed by the artist and includes a gallery certificate of authenticity. It is from an edition of 350 (+ 60 AP) and the current gallery retail price for the piece is over $40,000. About Frederick Hart As one of America’s greatest representational artists, Frederick Hart left a lasting and unique mark in the world of modern sculpture. Born in Atlanta, Georgia in 1943, he studied at the University of South Carolina and after protesting alongside black students during the Civil rights movement, he moved to Washington D.C. to continue his studies at the Corcoran School of Art. Fascinated with the human figure and the classical approach, he started developing his career in 1966 as a stone carver apprentice at the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. Leaving the Cathedral in 1971, Hart started his own studio practice but had little success in the first years. In 1974, he was awarded the project by the Cathedral to create a contemporary interpretation of The Creation, an event that would change his life. Soon, Hart’s career took a turn for the better, and in the upcoming decades, he rose to national prominence, becoming a government art advisor in 1985 and receiving the prestigious Henry Hering...

"Light Whispers" Dimensions: 17" x 12" x 5" Medium: Clear Acrylic Resin Edition 182/300 Frederick Hart's "Light Whispers" is the perfect name for this lucite sculpture that studies translucency's impact on the interplay of shadow and light. The nude woman subject is repeated several times, with varying degrees of revelation. In some iterations, she is shrouded in mystery, while other representations show her on full display with remarkable detail. Thanks to his impeccable eye for detail and technical precision, Frederick Hart is considered one of the world's foremost figurative sculptors. His classical techniques make for timeless, traditional works, but the innovative and modern use of lucite as a material help modernize the work. Frederick Hart's "Light Whispers" is signed by the artist and includes a gallery certificate of authenticity. It is from an edition of 300 and the current gallery retail price for the piece is over $16,000.
