More than 30 of Ackerman’s tapestries and mosaics capturing her distinct embrace of abstract and figural motifs star in the first solo show of her work outside of California, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of her birth. Her intricately made tapestries, produced from full-size drawings with detailed instructions color-keyed to yarn samples, often featured flowers, trees, animals, and people, drawing inspiration from modern and folk art movements. Together with her husband Jerome, she played a pivotal role in fusing craft and design to reach the broadest possible audience of interior designers and architects yet remains under-appreciated today.
