Carole A. Feuerman (Born 1945) is an American artist and hyper-realistic sculptor. She currently lives and works in New York, New York. Feuerman is most known for her resin sculptures painted in oil, but she also utilizes other media such as bronze and stone. She developed a technique she calls “painting with fire”[1] where she pours, splatters and splashes up to five different molten metals that are 2000 degrees in temperature.
In 2010 she introduced photography and interactive video media as a component to her sculptural works. Most recently she has directed her focus to the realm of public art and a series of hyper-realistically painted bronze sculptures.
She is represented by galleries both nationally and abroad, and has work in many public and private collections all over the world. She has enjoyed six museum retrospectives to date, and has been included in exhibitions at, among other venues, the Smithsonian Institute's National Portrait Gallery, the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, the Venice Biennale, and Palazzo Strozzi in Florence, Italy.
Public Art
In 2003, Feuerman was commissioned by artist Seward Johnson and the Sculpture Foundation to create a one of a kind painted bronze sculpture installation for the permanent collection of Grounds for Sculpture.[2]
On May 20, 2012, Feuerman unveiled her monumental sculpture "Survival of Serena" in painted bronze with New York City's Department of Parks and Recreation.[3] Its resin sister debuted at the Venice Biennale in 2007. The new "Survival of Serena" is the first of a series of painted bronze sculptures by the artist designed specifically for outdoor placement. The bronze sculpture was prominently installed in Petrosino Square through September before traveling to the Boca Raton Beach Resort in Florida, where it is currently on view.[4] Additional painted bronze sculptures by Feuerman inclding "Next Summer" and "Balance" were publicly showcased by Baker Sponder Gallery at the Boca Raton Beach Club & Resort as well the Ritz Carlton Key Biscayne.
From September 19, 2012 through January 6, 2013, Feuerman's monumental work "Quan", in painted bronze and polished stainless steel, was featured at Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan as part of the group show entitled "Body Double: The Figure in Contemporary Sculpture".[5]
A 16 foot bronze diver entitled "The Golden Mean" at Riverfront Green Park with Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art in Peekskill, New York[6] was unveiled on September 29, 2012, Feuerman's largest work to date. A video documentary on the two-year creation of the work plays on loop at the HVCCA gallery space and has also been posted online.[7] In 2013, The City of Peekskill announced the acquisition of the sculpture as a permanent monument to the town. A second diver was created for her spring 2013 solo exhibition at Jim Kempner Fine Art also titled "The Golden Mean" where it is on display in the outdoor sculpture garden through the summer and then moved to an 8 piece outdoor sculpture exhibition at Mana Contemporary in Jersey City. The monumental model used to create the bronze was installed in the 2013 Venice Biennale where it is on display in Giardini at the entrance to the Biennale.
