Carole A. Feuerman
“There is a conditioned, yet inaccurate, belief that “good” radical art has to reject something that is attractive and pleasing to the eye. I do not reject the concept of beauty, but embrace it.”
‒ Carole Feuerman
Realist sculptor Carole A. Feuerman’s (1945‒) human-figure sculptures express a refreshing perspective on the mundane but intensely personal activities of modern life. Her powers of observation and versatility find unique expression through various materials that include marble, bronze, vinyl, and painted resins, while she incorporates both ancient and contemporary methods in the creation of her works.
Feuerman’s museum retrospectives have included exhibitions at the Venice Biennale in Venice, Italy; the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC; The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia; The Palazzo Strozzi Foundation in Florence, Italy; and the Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, Spain, among others. Her work is featured in public, private, and corporate collections, including Grounds for Sculpture, Trenton, New Jersey; the El Paso Museum of Art, El Paso, Texas; the Bass Museum of Art, Miami Beach, Florida; and art-st-urban, Lucerne, Switzerland. Her large-scale Olympic Swimmer was featured in the Olympic Fine Arts exhibition at the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing, China.
