Portraits presents late works by Jackie Saccoccio, including large paintings and works on paper. Her abstract surfaces emerge through physical processes—canvases pressed and dragged together while paint remains wet—creating layered marks and flowing color. Inspired by the scale and detail of Roman Baroque sculpture, particularly Algardi’s Pope Innocent X, Saccoccio’s paintings invite viewers to encounter abstraction as a powerful, immersive presence akin to the human figure.
