  • We visit the artist in upstate New York where she has been working on her latest body of work-a continuation of her Mama series-consisting of automatic drawings and paintings on canvas which reveal her persisting interrogation of line, color and form. #RitaAckermann’s solo exhibition, ‘Mama ‘20’, on view at Hauser & Wirth Zürich from 12 September - 18 December 2020, continues her distinctive approach to painting and the coalescence between the personal and collective experience within.

    It's interesting and pathetic how many people feel the need to define and degrade artistic expression. She paints following her instincts, maybe y'all should try it and stop spreading your pointless negativity. Words such as good or bad are irrelevant when it comes to art. Art is about relationality . . . you either relate to it or you don't. What this relationship means to each viewer/participant is personal. Viewing and making art are both acts of care.

    Rita is a beautiful child. The practice to understand is an art form just in its self. But to appreciate something when not understood is the true aim for pleasantry. Her forms are worth it imo
    Being disciplined as a child. I was made to stand in the corner and all I had to do was turn around.

    I find that most artists working abstractly entirely lack the skills, lack the art historical overview, and totally lack an artistic understanding of this important but generally abused stylistic choice. Almost no artists of any merit have ever produced wothwhile abstract paintings. By and large, it is usually sought by artists as a crutch for those who cannot draw, compose, or paint effectively.

    • @lemonbeans

      Ackermann can paint figuratively. Just look up her early work, or the early work of any major abstract artist, like Rothko or Pollock.

    • @KpxUrz5745
      @KpxUrz5745 Před 2 lety +10

      @@lemonbeans I am extremely familiar with the early works of Rothko and Pollock, and when I said "almost no artists of any merit" I was making allowances for those two artists and a few others. But I do not make similar allowances for Ackerman and am in no way convinced that she has "earned her stripes" by way of justification to broaden into pure abstraction by virtue of prior accumulated abilities. You state that she can paint figuratively, and yet I look at earlier figurative attempts and conclude just the opposite: that she cannot paint figuratively. The whole idea of pure abstraction somehow being more advanced or sophisticated is a misguided premise to begin with. I suggest we drop this because it will lead nowhere. I made my point.

    • @lemonbeans
      @lemonbeans Před 2 lety +38

      ​@@KpxUrz5745 You're impugning the character of an artist and by extension thousands of others like her by limiting the definition of good work to whatever doesn't deviate from a pretty specific European model of painting. Nobody is arguing for the privileging of abstraction over representation; your criticism comes off as reactionary. The ceiling of Warhol's technical ability was commercial illustration; Francis Bacon could barely hold a brush and started painting in his 30s. Frankly, I'm not even trying to prove a point because I think the record speaks overwhelming against yours! Look at all the institutions endorsing this artist. Hubris! I'm more concerned that you've robbed yourself of the ability to appreciate the value of anything that isn't prioritizing craft and technical proficiency! Are Julie Andrews and Ariana Grande superior artists to Tom Waits and Bob Dylan because of their wider vocal range? If you'd have said "I prefer representational, technically refined art," that's fine, it's your subjective taste. But you're calling entire movements (excepting a handful of superstars) ignorant and unskilled because their values deviate from yours. Baloney!

      That is complete bullish-t. I've spent 35 years painting and drawing things that look like things, and I'm bored with the constraints. Sometimes it's much more exciting to start something and just figure it out as you go, not knowing where you'll end up. The question is, can abstract work evoke an emotional response in the viewer? And if so, it is worth making. Not everyone want to look at portraits and landscapes.
