Contemporary Fine Art
Since 1977, Hunt Slonem has soloed in over one hundred
fifty exhibitions worldwide. Over fifty museums
internationally include his work in their collections,
among them the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New
York. Corporate collections include AT&T, Chase
Manhattan Bank, Citi Bank, Goldman Sacks Co., IBM, and
Marriot Corporation. He won the 1991 National
Endowment for the Arts Grant in Painting, and McDowell
Fellowships in 1986, 1984, and 1983.

Slonem has lived and worked in New York in his
legendary loft with over seventy pet birds since 1973.
The birds are his inspiration and his models. So
enmeshed and unique are his aviary, studio, and lifestyle
and painting, that Slonem had been featured on
television a dozen times and in numerous articles. The
birds evolved from Slonem's early paintings of saints as
well as inspiration from pioneers of bird imagery in
painting, including Fabitsus, Heade and of course
Audubon. Slonem has been referred to as the John James
Audobon of the modern world.

Poet and critic John Ashberry observes, "From the narrow
confines of his grads, half cage, half perch, Slonem
summons dazzling explosions of the variable life around
us that needs only to be looked at in order to spring into
being."
