Description:
Ebba Rapp
1909 — 1985
Untitled, circa 1955
Ceramic sculpture with gouache
Gift of David F. Martin and Dominic A. Zambito

Ebba Rapp was a multifaceted artist who painted, made ceramic sculpture, exhibited her work regularly, and taught three—dimensional design at the Cornish School. Her works show the impact of Native American culture, her studies with noted Russian artist Alexander Archipenko (1887—1964) at the University of Washington, and the pull of surrealism, which stimulated artists to visualize the unconscious.
