Brain #: 414

New York-based artist and trendsetter Hunt Slonem is considered one of the great colorists of his time. As vibrant a dresser and decorator as he is a painter and sculptor, this creative force of nature is well known for his neo-expressionist works of butterflies, rabbits and tropical birds, the latter often inspired by the exotic feathered friends he houses in an aviary in his 30,000 square foot studio. Slonem has had more than 300 one-man shows in galleries and museums around the world. His work is also in the permanent collections of 250 museums, including the Guggenheim, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney.
