Raque Ford at Fridericianum Kassel
The Fridericianum in Kassel presents a solo exhibition by American artist Raque Ford, whose practice combines abstraction with bold color and text-based visual language. Ford works with plastic and industrial materials to create layered, visually striking compositions.
