Hunt Slonem
Der 71 jährige New Yorker Maler, Bildhauer und Grafiker Slonem wurde weltweit bekannt durch seine neo-expressionistischen Motive.
Beeindruckend, unerwartet, realistisch, und zum Teil abstrakt, bezaubert Slonem mit Bunnies, Butterflies und Birds.
Seinen Hasen/Bunnies, mit ihrem unabhängigen und weichen Charakter, gibt Slonem in Einklang mit ihrem jeweils ausgewählten Rahmen eine einzigartige Persönlichkeit. Die ursprünglich abstrakt angelegten Bunnies werden mit viel Liebe zum Detail und hoher Präzision zum Leben erweckt und finden jeweils schnell ihren persönlichen Liebhaber.
