"BY THE SEA", on Giordini, curated by John T. Spike, is a spontaneous mini-retrospective of Carole Feuerman, the super-realist sculptor. The show pays dual homage to Feuerman's swimmers and to Venice herself, the ultimate seaside city. Carole Feuerman first unveiled her bathing beauties at the Basel art fair of 1979. Today, she is the reigning doyenne of super-realism. BY THE SEA presents five major sculptures from the whole span of her career, 1981 to 2007, and still going strong. Visitors wearing T-shirts and flip flops are more than welcome.
Born in 1945, Feuerman was a full generation younger than Duane Hanson and John de Andrea, the pioneers of figure sculpture that is life-sized and life-like down to the tiniest details. In the early seventies, while Hanson was exhibiting his supermarket shoppers and other Pop Art satires, Feuerman was drawing album art for Alice Cooper and the Rolling Stones (-Monkey Man'). When she turned to sculpture in 1978, she took super-realism in a new direction: she got personal.
Feuerman knew that the flipside of junk-food culture was a new awareness of -wellness'. Health, the World Health Organisation decided in 1970, embraced a total package of -physical, mental, and social well being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity'. A sound mind in a sound body, in other words. Feuerman's swimmers and bathers feel good inside their own skin. Thirty years ago, showing healthy, intelligent women was a radical departure in contemporary art. Now, to a new generation of realistic sculptors, Feuerman looks like an old master.
