Collection: Bunnies & Beyond
In Chinese astrology, each year is associated with an animal sign, and the Rabbit symbolizes peace, creativity, and compassion. Those born in the Year of the Rabbit are believed to possess gentle and amiable personalities, often embodying artistic sensibilities and a deep appreciation for beauty and harmony.
Renowned artist Hunt Slonem, celebrated globally for his iconic bunny artworks, shares a profound connection with this theme. His artistic journey as an American colorist and figurative painter has been marked by an enduring fascination with tropical birds, inspired by his personal aviary, and a deep affection for rabbits. Beyond their symbolic relevance, Slonem admires these creatures for their inherent dynamism and independence, once remarking that "they can hold a pose without moving for hours, and then suddenly dart away as if propelled by a coiled spring." Interestingly, the genesis of his iconic bunnies occurred during a meal at a Chinese restaurant while savoring a spring roll. It was there that he discovered that his birth year, 1951, had been designated as the Year of the Rabbit. His iconic bunnies began as warm-up exercises, following the tradition of Hans Hofmann, who used to commence his creative day with a series of small paintings to awaken his artistic spirit. As Slonem puts it, "He painted abstractions. I paint rabbits."
Manolis Projects Gallery proudly showcases a significant collection of Slonem's earlier works (1972-1987), exploring humanity's connection with nature and spirituality. This year, the gallery introduces the latest Hunt Slonem Collection sculptures, to be unveiled during the opening event.
As part of this tribute, Manolis Projects Gallery invited 30 artists to create their most representative works on 40 x 30-inch canvases. This unique format, championed by gallery owner and artist-in-residence J. Steven Manolis, allows viewers to appreciate artists' techniques and styles without distractions like size and orientation.
