| 説明 | Tony Feher (b. 1956, Albuquerque, New Mexico) received his B.A. from the University of Texas, Austin in 1978. In 1981, Feher left Corpus Christi for New York City. The artist began exhibiting his work in 1980, and by 1991, was showing both nationally and internationally. Rooted in the legacy of minimalism, Feher’s work emphasizes the importance of seeing objects as they are. The materials of his art derive from the incidental, the ordinary, the commonplace, and what many are apt to regard as the mundane. Feher stacks, dangles, arranges, and aligns detritus and ephemera. Repetition, materiality, and the architecture of his surroundings figure into his work. As the artist once explained, “I look for the ‘trick’ in materials, that indescribable something that allows me to exploit an object for my own purposes: a reflection of light, a color, a play of density versus transparency, a little something that sets it off.” Like the poet William Carlos Williams, with whom he is often compared, Feher’s work enables the viewer to observe and appreciate the beauty in the ordinary, everyday objects that surround them. On November 8, 2007, the Public Art Fund presented a group exhibition called Everyday Eden at MetroTech Center’s public plaza in downtown Brooklyn. Feher’s plan to incorporate into his installation a selection of trees within the existing park created a free form organic sculpture. Everyday Eden remained on view through September 1, 2008. Most recently, the artist was invited by the Indianapolis Museum of Art to create an installation in the Efroymson Entrance Pavilion. A Single Act of Carelessness Will Result in the Eternal Loss of Beauty was on view from March 10 through October 21, 2007. During this time, The Art Museum of South Texas in Corpus Christi organized Tony Feher: Some Time Soon, an installation created specifically for the museum. Dan Cameron contributed an essay to the accompanying exhibition catalogue. This past year, Feher also participated in Like color in pictures, an international group exhibition at the Aspen Museum of Art.Tony Feher took part in Poetic Justice, the 8th International Istanbul Biennial, in September 2003. Given Hagia Sophia as his installation site, Feher utilized the ancient building’s architectural structure as a framework for his sculptural installation. The entire process had a profound impact on the artist.His work has been featured in over 140 gallery and museum exhibitions worldwide. Important solo exhibitions were organized by the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College in 2001, a version of which later traveled to the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, and the Worcester Art Museum installed Tony Feher: Maybe/Enjoy in 2002. Feher was a featured artist at the Chinati Foundation’s Open House in 2005. Other solo shows include Broadway Window Project, New Museum of Contemporary Art (1996), I’m Tired of Toast, Matrix 201a, Berkeley Art Museum (2002) and La Fundación “La Caixa,” Lleida, Spain (2004).Tony Feher’s work is part of numerous public collections, including The Art Institute of Chicago; Baltimore Museum of Art; Des Moines Art Center; Israel Museum; La Colécion Jumex, Mexico City; Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Whitney Museum of American Art; and Worcester Art Museum.Tony Feher lives in New York City.
