Carole A. Feuerman, American hyperrealist sculptor, will be
presented by the Global Arts Foundation, Bel Air Fine Arts, and Bisol Prosecco at three exclusive
exhibitions in Italy during the week of the Venice Biennale from May 9 – 12, 2017.
Carole A. Feuerman is recognized as a pioneering figure in the world of hyperrealist sculpture.
Together with Hanson and De Andrea, she was one of the three leaders that started the movement
in the late seventies by making life-like sculptures that portrayed their models precisely
They are meticulously detailed to create the illusion of a new reality. Dubbed ‘the reigning doyenne of superrealism’
by art historian John T. Spike, Feuerman has solidified her place in art history.
Feuerman, through her sculptures creates visual manifestations of the stories she wants to tell of
survival, balance and the struggle achieve. She is best known for her largescale sculptures of
swimmers complete with water drops. “Swimming and water have fascinated me for as long as I
can remember, and as a result, have become the essence of my inspiration for my works,” she said.
Feuerman has spent the last four decades sculpting monumental, life-sized, and museum sized
works in bronze, resin, and marble. Her labor-intensive sculptures involve working on the pieces
both in wax and bronze, later applying a patina in the foundry, and detailed finishes in her studio.
The Global Arts Affairs Foundation (GAAF) will host two openings for Feuerman, who will be
exhibiting new outdoor painted bronze sculptures in the Giardino Della Marinaress (Riva dei Sette
Martiri, 30122 Venezia, Italy). The first opening will be on Thursday, May 11, 2017 and the next on
Friday, May 12 from 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm in the park. The Exhibition will be open to the public
beginning May 13 through December 5, 2017; open 10:00 am -­­ 6:00 pm daily. GAAF is a non-profit
organization that aims to heighten awareness about contemporary art, architecture, and culture
to make art more accessible to a wider international audience.
Bel Air Fine Art (Calle dello Spezier, 2765, 30124 Venezia, Italy), with over sixteen galleries
throughout Europe and the Middle East, will present a series of Feuerman’s sculptures. Bel Air Fine
Art will host the opening on Friday, May 12 in the Giardino Della Marinanessa from 5:00 pm – 8:00
