From monumental to more intimately-scaled works, Angela Grossmann’s figures relish in the intensity of pigment and gesture. Her works may be thought of as traditional portraiture, but more significantly they bring insight into historical representations of the female. Grossmann depicts the body because she is empowered by it and familiar with it – through observation, memory, and lived experience – and has now been addressing it in her studio practice for over four decades.
