Literature: Cantz 45-56. From the portfolio of 12 etchings with aquatint on wove paper. Signed in pencil and numbered. Co-published by Brooke Alexander/Marlborough Graphics, New York. Printed by Hitoshi Nakazato, New York. // June Ekman's Class 6 is an etching with aquatint on wove paper by Alex Katz, from the portfolio of twelve prints created in 1972 in an edition of 50 plus 10 artist's proofs (Cantz 45-56). Expressive line work captures a woman with flowing hair, the etched strokes conveying movement and vitality. Katz's confident handling of the needle produces marks that oscillate between description and abstraction, grounding the figure in specificity while leaving room for formal invention. The black-and-white palette heightens the graphic impact, making this sheet a compelling example of Katz's early mastery of intaglio portraiture.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
