Jim Kempner Fine Art presents Carole A. Feuerman

*The Golden Mean* - Solo Exhibition
	May 16 – June 29	Opening Reception: May 16th 6-8 pm rsvp at info@jimkempner.com
		World-renowned for her hyper-realistic sculptures of swimmers and bathers, Carole A. Feuerman’s exhibition features a new collection of work, most notably life-size and monumental bronze figures. The Golden Mean, the centerpiece of this solo exhibition, is a towering 16-foot male diver moments before doing a back dive. It is an icon for achieving the impossible, for the struggle of survival and strength, and the resilience of the human spirit. This piece is a testament to Feuerman’s ambitious vision by successfully engineering a two-ton sculpture to stand upside down on 6-inch wrists. The “golden mean” refers to the ancient mathematical equation epitomizing balance and proportion. The concept of striving for both achievements while maintaining balance in structure and in life is a common thread throughout Feuerman’s work. The Golden Mean, on display in Jim Kempner Fine Art’s sculpture garden, exemplifies the important, close relationship between balance, proportion and mathematics.


	Feuerman uses the image of a circle and a sphere to further depict her desire for balance and harmony. In her monumental painted bronze work, Quan, a larger-than-life female figure rests peacefully atop an impressive stainless steel ball, while remaining perfectly symmetrical and in balance. The title of this work is derived from the Chinese name for the ‘goddess of compassion’. In Buddhist imagery, the goddess is depicted looking or glancing down, symbolizing her watching over the world. In Feuerman’s sculpture, the figure’s poise and stance on top of the sphere (a metaphor for the world) quintessentially exudes steadiness and stability. The sphere is polished to a beautiful mirror finish, allowing viewers to reflect and connect to the work on a personal level as they are visibly incorporated into the work.

Infinity with Swarovski Cap continues Feuerman’s theme of balance and proportions by suspending from the ceiling, seemingly weightless, in a stainless steel ring. In a ring, we see the circular pattern of life. It is faithful to continue around and around like the daily repetition of our lives. A ring is a symbol of power and wealth, as well as, a symbol of wholeness and peace. Infinity with Swarovski Cap embodies these symbols, as well as, presents an element of tranquility and grace through the subject’s closed gaze (as evident in many of Feuerman’s figures).

The General’s Daughter at the National Portrait Gallery

Alina — Fri, 15 Mar 2013 20:06:00 +0000

OUTWIN BOOCHEVER PORTRAIT COMPETITION

March 23, 2013 through February 23 2014

Opening Reception - Friday, March 22 – 7:00 to 10:00 PM

“The vision of Virginia Outwin Boochever was to increase awareness about portraiture as a vibrant art form,” said Wendy Wick Reaves, interim director of the museum. “I think that this installation will dazzle people with the wide variety of materials used to make portraits.” The juried exhibition received more than 3,000 entries in a variety of visual arts media and a total of 48 works were chosen.

External jurors for the competition were critic Peter Frank, artist Hung Liu, art historian Richard Powell, photographer Alec Soth, and National Portrait Gallery staff Brandon Brame Fortune, chief curator, Dorothy Moss, assistant curator of painting and sculpture, and Reaves.

The exhibition will be accompanied by both an app and a publication illustrating each of the 48 finalists’ works. It includes an essay by Mary Sherriff, the W.R. Kenan, Jr. distinguished Professor of Art History at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

During the exhibition, museum and web visitors can vote for their favorite pieces as part of the “People’s Choice Award” with the winners announced this September.

“General Ragin is a man I have known for over 20 years. He works as an attendant in the parking lot I use near my home. I witnessed firsthand how the birth of his daughter instantly transformed his world. She was a gorgeous baby and lit up his life. I knew from the time she was an infant that I wanted to make a portrait of her. When she was three and a half years old, I attempted to have her pose for me however she could not sit still. At the time, she was still too young for a portrait. I watched her grow up, waiting until she was old enough to pose for me again. Finally when she turned sixteen, she came to my studio again. My sculpture “The General’s Daughter” captures that special moment when she changed from a young girl to a young adult. The experience and process of creating the artwork has resonated with Syntonia and inspired her to state, ‘I came to an understanding of who I am and that I loved artistic work’.”
