Vincent Fecteau (born 1969) is an American sculptor based in San Francisco.[1][2] He graduated from Wesleyan University in 1992.[3]
He is known for working with ordinary materials such as foamcore, seashells, string, rubber bands, paper clips, walnut shells, and popsicle sticks, and transforming them into beautifully precise handcrafted sculptures.[4][5] Constructed of papier-mâché, Fecteau often works on several sculptures at a time, taking a year or longer to finish each work.[6] He layers materials and textures, revealing a painstaking creative process that alters significantly the original spherical shapes.[7][8]
Fecteau's art has been included in numerous exhibitions, including the 2002 and 2012 Whitney Biennial, the 2013 Carnegie International, and a 2008 solo exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago, Focus: Vincent Fecteau, New Work.[9][10][11] In 2005, the Guggenheim Foundation announced Vincent Fecteau as recipient of their fellowship. A MacAuthur Foundation fellowship (commonly known as a "genius grant") followed in 2016.[12] His work is held in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.[13][14]
Vincent Fecteau is represented by Matthew Marks[15] and Galerie Buchholz.[16]
