Chase Contemporary presents 50 Years, an exhibition by Carole Feuerman on view November 7 -December 12, 2019.
Carole Feuerman is one of the earliest hyperrealist sculptors in American who pioneered the movement in the 1970s, along with Duane Hanson and John de Andrea. She is most known for her swimmers and bathers, whose underlying messages are about balance, perseverance, and survival.
Executed in painted resin with tactile flesh and meticulous detail, they display both contemporary and Classical influences. Feuerman has also developed a highly original technique of sculpting with molten metal, creating multi-layered bronzes influenced by action painting.
Opening Reception Thursday, November 7th, from 6-8pm at Chase Contemporary, located at 231 10th Avenue, NY 10011.
