Christian Eisenberger
Artforum says “SEHN SIE TIEF 9975-15432-32718” is Christian Eisenberger’s most comprehensive exhibition to date at Galerie Krinzinger. Though these paintings are not abstraction they are abstractions literally and conceptually- and clearly owe their execution approach to a number of abstractionists.

Zao Wou-Ki
Artsy notes some rising Chinese artists- the surge is apparently also pulling Zao into our consciousness which is better late than never (he passed in 2013) as he was quite interesting.

Thornton Dial
Hyperallergic says we should pay attention to the rich, vibrant worlds Thornton created during his time with us (spoiler- not all of them are abstracted).

Rita Ackerman
I follow a hashtag for Rita on IG- she show with Hauser & Wirth if you want more. Here’s a recent artist talk also.

Tracey Emin
Xavier Hufkens at Artsy has words about Tracey’s newest. Known for more literal work, these newest are abstractions if not abstraction (“…rather than painting literal depictions of precise events, Emin captures the emotions they awaken”).

Louise Fishman
Artforum notes “Ballin’ the Jack,” and also that Louise began “her practice at the height of Abstract Expressionism; Fishman asserted herself as a queer feminist Jewish woman within the artistic milieu of the time. Her atmospheric spaces and muscular articulations recount the urgency of her self-expression, and speak to the dynamic forward motion of ballin’ the jack, or going full-speed.”

Edwin Aitken
I first encountered Edwin’s work through Prosaic (which you should be following on IG if you aren’t). Looks like he’s a Beep Prize winner.
