Carole A. Feuerman is recognized as a pioneering figure in the world of hyperrealist sculpture. Together with Hanson and De Andrea, she was one of the three leaders that started the movement in the late seventies by making life sculptures that portrayed their models precisely.  Dubbed ‘the reigning doyenne of super-realism’ by art historian John T. Spike, Feuerman has solidified her place in art history.

​Feuerman has been honored with nine solo major museum retrospectives to date.  Her work has been showcased in numerous exhibitions including the Venice Biennale, the State Hermitage, the Palazzo Strozzi Foundation, the Kunstmuseum Ahlen, the Archeological Museum di Fiesole, and the Circulo de Bellas Artes.  She won first prize at the Austrian Biennale, the Florence Biennale, the 2008 Olympic Fine Art Exhibition, Best in Show at the Beijing Biennale, Best in Show at the Save the Arts Foundation as Museum Choice, and has also won a Peabody. One of Feuerman’s most recognizable pieces, “The Golden Mean”, can be seen in Riverfront Green Park overlooking the Hudson River and is owned by the City of Peekskill, NY. Her “Monumental Double Diver” is owned by the City of Sunnyvale in Silicon Valley, CA. Her sculptures are included in the permanent collections sculpture parks, cities, and in the permanent collections of 19 museums, and the private collections of the Emperor of Japan, President Bill and Hillary Clinton, Norman Brahman, the Caldic Collection, Mark Parker of Nike, and Malcolm Forbes, among others.

Feuerman lives in New York City and maintains two studios, one in Chelsea and the other at Mana Contemporary in New Jersey. On an ongoing basis, Feuerman's work can be seen in selected museums and public and private collections worldwide. ​
