Artist of the day, May 2: Carole A. Feuerman, American sculptor (Hyperrealism)

Carole A. Feuerman (1945) is an American sculptor and artist working in Hyperrealism, a movement that began in the 1970s in relation to photorealist painting. Feuerman was a full generation younger than Duane Hanson and John de Andrea, the pioneers of Hyperrealism in figurative sculpture. Dubbed "the reigning doyenne of super-realism" by art historian John T. Spike, Feuerman is known for her lifelike portrayals of swimmers.

Feuerman’s prolific career spans over four decades and four continents. Through her sculptures, she creates visual manifestations of the stories she wants to tell; of strength, survival, balance. Feuerman has produced a rich body of work in the studio and the public realm. By combining conventional sculptural materials of steel, bronze, and resin, with more unconventional media like water, sound, and video, she creates hybrid works of intricate energy and psychology.

She has taught, lectured, and given workshops at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon Guggenheim Museum, Columbia University, and Grounds for Sculpture. In 2011, she founded the Carole A. Feuerman Sculpture Foundation. She continues her focus on public outdoor sculptures, working primarily in bronze.
