Rita Ackermann: Works on paper

Seamlessly uniting the diverse impulses of figuration and abstraction in this new series of works on paper, the Hungarian born, New York-based artist Rita Ackermann effortlessly distills timeless notions of genesis and destruction into a visual language rich in personal, familial, and ancestral significance. Through simultaneously employing illustrative and automatic drawing techniques, Ackermann has created a cacophony of expressive gestures evidencing the presence of her hand and the residue of her artistic spirit.

Rita Ackermann & The Wooster Group

Rita Ackermann and Hauser & Wirth will donate 100 percent of the proceeds from the purchase of the works online to the avant-garde downtown Manhattan theater company, The Wooster Group, in support of their campaign to keep open The Performing Garage, their permanent space at 33 Wooster Street.

Since 1975, The Wooster Group has been creating boundary-defying performance work in theater, dance, and mixed media that speaks to their unyielding creativity of body, mind, and spirit. The inherent avant-gardism of the company and their radical experimentation, which undoubtedly helped launch the careers of actors like Willem Dafoe and Spalding Gray, have also necessitated that they contend with constant financial uncertainty. Ackermann’s support will enable them to continue their valuable work at The Performing Garage and around the world. For more information please visit thewoostergroup.org.
