Artist information: Hunt Slonem (1951, American Artist) His love and admiration for distant destinations has been a constant in his life since childhood. Hunt Slonem was born in 1951 in Kittery, Maine, and his father's position as a Navy officer caused the family to move often during Hunt's formative years, including extended stays in Hawaii, California and Connecticut. He would continue to seek opportunities to travel during his younger years, studying abroad in Nicaragua and Mexico; These eye-opening experiences imbued him with an appreciation for tropical landscapes that would influence his unique style. After graduating with a degree in painting and art history from Tulane University in New Orleans, Slonem spent several years in the early 1970s living in Manhattan. It wasn't until Janet Fish offered him her studio for the summer of 1975 that Slonem was able to fully immerse himself in his work. His pieces began to be exhibited in New York, which boosted his reputation and immersed him in the city's explosive contemporary art scene. As Slonem honed his aesthetic, his work began to appear in unique and contextual spaces. In 1995 he completed a massive two-by-seven-foot mural of birds, which spans the walls of the Bryant Park Grill restaurant in New York. His charitable work has led to dozens of collaborations, including a wallpaper of his famous bunnies designed specifically with Lee Jofa for the Ronald McDonald House on Long Island. Slonem continues to draw much inspiration from history, forging palpable connections to the past through his art. His popular portraits of Abraham Lincoln reframe the historical figure as a pop art icon, and he is currently working on a nine-foot-tall bronze sculpture of French explorer Robert De La Salle, which will go on public display in Louisiana.
