BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 12. An exhibition by
American sculptor and artist Carole Feuerman will open at the
Heydar Aliyev Center on January 16, presenting a comprehensive look
at one of the leading figures of contemporary hyperrealist
sculpture, Trend
reports.
Feuerman is widely known for her full-body sculptures marked by
a powerful realist impact and is especially recognized for her
figurative works depicting swimmers and dancers. The exhibition in
Baku, titled "Reborn into the Water," spans a broad creative
period, from her works of the 1970s to the swimmer figures created
in recent decades.
The "Swimmers" series is considered a symbolic expression of
Feuerman’s artistic vision. Crafted from resin, painted bronze, and
stainless steel, the sculptures invite viewers to rediscover the
resilience of the human body. Beyond physical strength, the artist
explores inner resilience and the ability to overcome personal and
social challenges. The "Reborn into the Water" exhibition reflects
both an intimate personal narrative and a broader social
perspective, aiming to foster empathy and encourage a reevaluation
of outdated perceptions. Feuerman’s work "Ruth" will be presented
to the public for the first time at the Heydar Aliyev Center.
Feuerman’s works have previously been exhibited at prominent
venues around the world. Her outdoor installations have been
showcased on Park Avenue and in Central Park in New York, along the
Poydras Corridor in New Orleans, and on Avenue George V in Paris.
Today, her sculptures are part of more than 30 museum collections
worldwide and are displayed in public spaces and private
collections across the globe.
