FRANK FLUEGEL GALLERY has since 2021 the US American artist Hunt Slonem new in the program and especially his famous Bunny series paintings. Some of them are now on display in the gallery's cabinet during the winter months. The artist is best known for his neo-expressionist paintings of rabbits, butterflies and tropical birds. The colorful paintings are usually set in unusual frames that complete the work and are part of the picture.
Hunt Slonem was born in Maine, USA in 1951. His father was in the Navy and so the family moved often. Slonem lived in Hawaii, Virginia, Connecticut, California, Washington State and Nicaragua, among other places.

He graduated from Tulane University in New Orleans with a Bachelor of Arts degree in painting and art history. He also attended classes at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine, where he studied and met influential artists from the New York area, such as Louise Nevelson, Alex Katz, Alice Neel, Richard Estes, Jack Levine, and Al Held. Alex Katz, in particular, Slonem refers to as an important mentor and friend.
Another important artist for Slonem is Andy Warhol. He says that the repetition in Warhol's work had a lasting influence on him, especially the Campbell's soup cans and the portrait of Marilyn Monroe. So Slonem also repeats a motif in his work again and again, such as the rabbit in countless variations. It's like prayer, the artist says; for him, repetition is a form of worship. In 1973, Slonem moved to New York, where he has lived and worked ever since.
 
More than 50 museums and collections around the world own works by Hunt Slonem, including the Metropolitain, the Guggenheim and the Whitney Museum in New York. In Germany, his works are in the Würth Collection in Künzelsau, among others.
The bunny paintings, all unique pieces in oil on wood in an antique frame are on continuous view at FRANK FLUEGEL GALERIE.

Exhibitions are held in regular rotation in the centrally located gallery spaces in Nuremberg and Kitzbuehel. In the online store, collectors can buy the artworks around the clock. International fair participations and solo shows complete the program.
Many of the offered artworks can be bought and taken away by the collector immediately, because they are in stock. Due to high demand, prices of some artists can be expected to rise. Works can rise in price (this development in value is quite desirable for the investor) and old prices can lose their validity.
