Artists in conversation

Kiki Smith
American · b. 1954

Kiki Smith creates figurative etchings and prints centered on female subjects with a similar combination of technical refinement and expressive mark making. Her printmaking practice shares Schütte's interest in the human figure rendered through layered intaglio processes with rich color and graphic intensity.

Georg Baselitz
German · b. 1938

Georg Baselitz produces bold figurative prints rooted in the German contemporary tradition, often working with etching and drypoint to create expressive portrait like figures with strong graphic character. His colorful printmaking shares the same cultural context and figurative vocabulary found in Schütte's etched portrait series.

Marlene Dumas
South African · b. 1953

Marlene Dumas focuses extensively on figurative portraits of female subjects rendered with raw expressive energy and a strong graphic sensibility, qualities that closely mirror Schütte's approach in this series. Her works on paper demonstrate a comparable commitment to capturing psychological presence through simplified yet evocative figurative representation.
