Hallie Hart is an American-born artist and filmmaker based in London. Hart is known for winning the Special Jury Prize at the international contemporary art competition GemlucArt in 2013 for her abstract painting titled Tree of Life.[1][2][3] She is also known for works such as the art project Unity[4][5] and her series of romance novels, Unzipped.[6]
Early life[edit]
Hart grew up in New York City.[2][7] She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with an MA in English Literature.[8][9]
Career[edit]
Hart represented the United States at GemlucArt in 2013, an international contemporary art competition in Monaco, held by Princess Caroline of Hanover.[1][10] Hart's abstract painting Tree of Life, an acrylic abstract painting on canvas, won the Special Jury Prize.[1][10]
Hart became the first female American abstract artist inducted into the Museo del Parco in Portofino.[11] Hart's work has also been displayed in galleries such as the Opera and Chase Contemporary in New York City.[12]
In 2015, to coincide with the reveal of multiple new art pieces in Miami,[13] Hart created a limited clothing range with designs mimicking the style of her canvas paintings.
In 2018, Hart displayed her "Diamond Dust Collection" at the Port Palace Hotel, Monte-Carlo, Monaco[8] and later at the Mana Contemporary Fine Arts in the United States. Hart describes the collection as "created for Monaco, and it exists because of the place. The opulence and beauty of Monaco is the collection."[14]
Hart wrote the documentary short-film "Fragments, Michael Gitlin", which was screened at the Soho House Art Club in September 2016.[15]
Hart performed a live painting event at Miami Art Basel 2019 at Wynwood 29, an affiliate of the Rubell Museum.[3]
In 2020, Hart was one of the artists who contributed to the group art show For Beirut with Love at the Opera Gallery in Beirut, which benefited relief efforts following the 2020 Beirut explosion.[16]
Hart exhibited her art project Unity, which consisted of over 100 abstract paintings of the American flag, in 2021.[4][17][18][3] The project debuted at the House of Hart, an art gallery in Aspen, Colorado owned by Hart[17][19][20] and was toured throughout the country as a national exhibition.[21][5]
Jackson Pollock is one of Hart's artistic influences.[2]
Author[edit]
On July 16, 2023, Hart released her debut novel Unzipped Sixteen, the first in the Unzipped book series. The novel is described as a "literary joyride filled with lust, love, opulence, celebrity, fashion and jet setting".[6] Hart has stated the book is a "half-fiction" which is "based loosely around her own life".[22]
The second novel in the Unzipped series, Unzipped Twenty-One, was released in January 2024.[23]
