FREDERICK HART: Artist and sculptor and stonecutter in the classical style, Frederick Hart was an apprentice at the National Cathedral in Washington DC and learned there about sculpting and stonecutting. Then Hart's big break came when he won a competition to design the facade of the Cathedral, which incorporated his thirteen-year masterpiece of the Creation, a 21 X 15-foot bas relief sculpture. Frederick Hart also designed "Three Soldiers bronze sculpture," realistic in style, for the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial to contrast with the abstraction of Maya Lin's work. Born in Atlanta, Georgia and raised in South Carolina, Hart was an opponent of most contemporary art, thinking it motivated by political rather than aesthetic reasons. As a proponent of realism, he was made an honorary member of The American Society of Classical Realism Guild of Artists.
