a twentieth-century American sculptor whose work recalls the figurative tradition of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A convert to Catholicism, Hart’s work often conveys sensuousness joined with religiosity. In his later career, he created female nudes from cast acrylic resin in a process that he patented. Hart was the sculptor of the statue “Three Servicemen” (also known as “Three Soldiers”), a controversial addition to Maya Lin‘s Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
