Valerie Hegarty (born 1967) is an American painter, sculptor, and installation artist.[1][2] She is known for irreverent, often critical works that replicate canonical paintings, furnishings, and architectural spaces from American or personal history undergoing various processes of transformation.[3][4][5] Hegarty most often portrays her recreations in meticulously realized, trompe l’oeil states of decay, ruin, or physical attack related to their circumstances (e.g., a seascape pierced by harpoons, a still life of food being eaten by crows).[6][7][8] Her work examines American historical themes involving colonization, slavery, Manifest Destiny, nationalism, art-historical movements and their ideological tenets, romantic conceptions of nature, and environmental degradation.[9][10][11]Sculpture critic Robin Reisenfeld wrote that among other things, Hegarty's art is "informed by 19th-century American landscape painting as an expression of the sublime, as well as by the manufacturing of two-dimensional 'masterworks' to be destroyed in three-dimensional fashion in order to evoke entropic forces of growth and decay."[4]
Hegarty has exhibited at venues including the Brooklyn Museum,[12] MoMA PS1,[13] Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago (MCA),[14] and Artists Space.[15] She has received awards from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation,[16] Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation[17] and Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation,[18] among others. Her work belongs to institutional collections including the Brooklyn Museum,[19] Hood Museum of Art,[20] Portland Museum of Art,[21] Perez Art Museum, and Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art.[22] She is based between New York City and Sullivan County, New York.
