A follow-up to Hunt's gorgeous, best-selling book Bunnies, ISBN 9780989170451 featuring the same deluxe production values
Hunt Slonem's exhibition schedule for 2017 includes more than 19 solo shows in Aspen, Montreal, Dubai and other locations worldwide.
Influenced by the exotic, lush landscapes of his childhood and youth in Hawaii and Nicaragua, Hunt Slonem paints richly coloured, impressionistic visions that are celebrated worldwide. Particularly sought after are his paintings of birds. Now for the first time, Slonem's bird paintings are collected into a single volume, published in a lavish hardcover edition, as a follow-up to his earlier luxe book, Bunnies.
In Birds, the Louisiana-born artist pays homage to these remarkable creatures through hundreds of engaging artworks. Dramatic and vivid, Slonem's avian subjects seem unconfined to a flat surface, as the paintings brim with texture and movement. Sure to please bird-lovers and fine art aficionados alike, this is a sumptuous hardcover volume that features metallic ink and silvergilded edges, a ribbon marker and an acetate jacket.
Hunt Slonem is an internationally recognised American painter, sculptor, and printmaker. His work has been exhibited in more than 350 galleries and museums worldwide, and is represented in the permanent collections of over 100 museums, including New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art. He lives in New York City and Louisiana, where he has notably restored two important plantations.
Jacqueline Bograd Weld is the author of the novel Rara Avis and the biography Peggy: The Wayward Guggenheim. She is presently starring in a movie, based on her book, Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict. Weld is also Chairman of the Board of Casita Maria, New York City's oldest settlement house for the Latino community. She lives in New York City.
