Canadian artist Fiona Ackerman was born in 1978 in Montreal, Canada, and studied Fine Arts at Concordia University and at the Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver, where she currently lives and works.

Fiona Ackerman is considered one of Canada’s most renowned artists and has exhibited widely in prominent galleries in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto, as well as at international art fairs. She has also held several exhibitions in Germany, including in Münster, Nuremberg, Düsseldorf, and Berlin.

Her fourth solo exhibition at Galerie Kremers presents abstract, vibrant works that highlight the playful and expressive aspects of her practice.

Ackerman is also active as a musician and is a member of the all-female band “KCAR.” The exhibition title “I’m so green” is a reference to the Cologne-based Krautrock band “Can.”

This year, Fiona Ackerman will design Booth #12 at PAPER POSITIONS BERLIN (May 1–4 in the airport reception hall). The featured concept envisions the booth as a trompe-l’œil: a room within a room, with various interiors and access to additional illusionistic spaces. These will include easels and screens displaying works by Fiona Ackerman alongside pieces by Ernst Weil and Gregor Hiltner.

The artist will set up the booth the day before the fair begins. As part of the “Behind the Scenes” program, visitors will have the opportunity to watch her at work.
