View through Artsy
Throughout her practice, Rita Ackermann has interrogated the boundaries of figuration in contemporary painting and has sought to blur the lines between formal representation and abstraction. The artist’s ghost-like compositions are achieved through sweeping, determined gestures of drawing, painting and erasing, wherein figures rise to the surface only to dissolve again.
