Grace Hartigan

Woman Warrior

"Woman Warrior" is an etching by Grace Hartigan, created on the fine art paper Rives BFK and printed with full margins intact. The work exemplifies Hartigan's dynamic approach to figuration, characteristic of her Abstract Expressionist practice that engaged with both gestural abstraction and representational imagery. The etching medium allowed the artist to render the female figure with vigorous, expressive mark making while maintaining the immediacy and directness typical of her printmaking practice.
