"Herringer Kiss Gallery on 11th Avenue brought to town the explosive and experimental paintings of Fiona Ackerman in an exhibition titled “Celebratory Gunfire”. Fiona fits right in with what I call "new school abstraction", for she’s one of the young painters that we can see blooming from coast to coast. It’s exciting work that somehow makes you want to laugh- an odd reaction for a serious pursuit, and triggered by marks, colour, and literal explosions right in front of you."
"XO" Acrylic on canvas, 36" x 132", 2011
