Wikipedia refers to Hunt Slonem as an artist who “combines abstract expressionism and representational imagery.” Slonem splits his time between his native Louisiana and New York. Over 75 museums internationally include his work in their collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum, both in New York.

Earlier this year, I hosted an Innovation Summit for 40 top executives at Thomson Reuters in Hunt Slonem’s home and studio in New York City. I took the executives out of their usual office and business environment and exposed them to one of the most provocative and innovative artists of our time. The executives engaged Slonem and his art, and in doing so they came away inspired and energized by this unique experience.
