The Hungarian artist Rita Ackermann arrived in New York in the early ’90s and has been part of the city’s art scene ever since.

1994 purple prose #7 featuring rita ackermann in purple bustes (portraits)

She has been featured in numerous issues of Purple, modeling for the magazine but also working as a long-standing contributor, giving us images, collages, and ideas, and supporting new artists. With her confidence and constant dedication to painting, she is a marvelous illustration of how an artist can evolve without compromising a highly personal approach to art.
