GOOD MORNING NEW YORK: THE RITA ACKERMANN PURPLE BOOK
GOOD MORNING NEW YORK: THE RITA ACKERMANN PURPLE BOOK
Co-published with Janvier
A loose and intimate portrait of Rita Ackermann’s New York—filtered through drawing, painting, and everyday fragments.
Conceived within the orbit of Purple Fashion, the book unfolds as a visual diary where images, sketches, and notes drift between personal mythology and urban observation. Ackermann’s practice—fluid, expressive, and deliberately unstable—moves across mediums, blurring the line between figure and abstraction, narration and gesture.
Moments appear and dissolve: bodies, interiors, street scenes—never fully fixed, always in transition. The result is a raw and atmospheric sequence that resists structure, favoring intuition and immediacy.
Both artist book and cultural artifact, Good Morning New York captures a specific mood and moment—positioning itself as a cult object within contemporary underground publishing.
