Ed Moses "Ikuru Speak-No" Silkscreen Print Limited 223/250 Signed
About the Item
Recently deceased, world -renowned artist Ed Moses, created this unique Silkscreen print in 1990 for the California Heritage Museum. The print consists of two attached sheets of paper. The bottom sheet is hand made Seikishu rice paper. The top sheet is 100% acid-free rag paper. The image on the top sheet is a collage made from several Japanese newspapers that Ed designed. His similar LA Louver prints used real newspaper that over time self-destructed. A silkscreen print with bold red and black cross-hatching was designed after the two pieces were attached. This unframed piece is signed by the artist, dated and numbered, and each print has his unique “chop” mark on the bottom right hand corner and Wasserman’s Silkscreen Co. blind stamp. Bio Ed Moses earned his B.A. and M.A. from UCLA. He has received numerous awards, including a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship. Since his debut at the Ferus Gallery in 1958, Moses has had over one hundred solo exhibitions at some of the art world’s most prestigious galleries and museums, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and a major retrospective at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. His work was recently included in the show of Los Angeles Art at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Moses is represented by Charlotte Jackson Fine Art in Santa Fe, Brian Gross Fine Art in San Francisco, Imago Galleries in Palm Desert, LA Louver in Venice, California and Bobbie Greenfield Gallery and Frank Lloyd Gallery, both in Santa Monica, California. For almost fifty years, Moses has pursued the beauty and mystery of pure abstraction in his art. In Axe, he imbues a somber black background with a riot of intense color and gesture.

Ed Moses
Ed Moses was a prominent figure in the Los Angeles art scene and key promoter of Post-War, West Coast art for almost 60 years. Best known for his eclectic range, his canvases are formal abstractions that use a variety of processes to experiment with surface—creating striations, cracks, marks and blurs at times juxtaposed with hard-edge geometric abstraction. Following graduation, Moses moved to New York City where he became friends with Franz Kline, Milton Resnick, William de Kooning, and Mark Rothko, with whom he would exhibit in New York, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere. In 1959, Moses married Avilda Peters and moved back to Los Angeles to start a family, travel, and continue his painting career. Always working with process and experimenting with materials as a painter, Moses was critically lauded for his bold composition and innovation. In 1968, he received a Tamarind Lithography Fellowship as well as the offer of a teaching position at the University of California, Los Angeles, his alma mater, where he would teach until 1972. After travels in Europe, he would return to UCLA to teach until 1976, the same year he was recognized with a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship Grant and his first museum shows: a show of drawings from 1958-1970s at the Wight Gallery at UCLA, and a show of new abstract and cubist red paintings at LACMA curated by Stephanie Barron, the latter marking a transitional moment in his career. While drawing was prominent in his work in the 1960s and early 70s, by the mid-70s, Moses was turning increasingly to painting. By 1990, Moses—a spiritual descendant of the Abstract Expressionists and a dedicated student of Buddhism—was living in Venice, California, meditating daily and blazing his own trail to aesthetic truth. Working with unconventional materials and tools, including mops, hoses, and rubber scrapers, he painted behind his house in Venice, where he lived for more than 30 years. Here, influenced by the tenants of Buddhism, he was working in the moment, embracing and responding to elements of chance and circumstance. Endlessly intrigued with the metaphysical power of painting, he created works that embraced temporality, process, and presence, remarking that “the point is not to be in control, but to be in tune.” Moses’ works are held in the permanent collections of the Albright-Knox Gallery, NY; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum; Philadelphia Museum of Art; Art Institute of Chicago; Berkeley Art Museum at UC Berkeley; Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; Dallas Museum of Art, Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Hammer Museum; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Cincinnati Museum of Art; Butler Art Institute of American Art, Ohio; Dallas Museum of Art; National Gallery of Art; Musee National d’art moderne – Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, FR; and many others.
