Ed Moses "Ikuru Speak-No" Silkscreen Print Limited 223/250 Signed
Located in Van Nuys, CA
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...

Antique and Vintage Asian Art and Furniture

From Japanese handmade earthenware pottery, originating circa 14,500 B.C. and adorned with elaborate corded patterns known as jōmon, to natural elm case pieces and storage cabinets built in Qing dynasty–era China to mid-century Thai rice-paper charcoal rubbings, antique and vintage Asian art and furniture make for wonderful additions to all kinds of contemporary interiors.

Eastern elements elevate any home’s decor. Introduce zen sensibility to your living room, dining room and bedroom with the neutral color palettes and the natural materials such as rattan, bamboo and elm that we typically associate with traditional Asian furniture. Decorative handwoven embroideries and textiles originating from India and elsewhere on the continent, which can be draped over a bed or sofa or used as a wall hanging, can be as practical as they are functional, just as you wouldn’t seek out Japanese room-divider screens — often decorated with paintings but constructed to be lightweight and mobile — merely for privacy.

With everything from blanket chests to lighting fixtures to sculptures and carvings, it’s easy to tastefully bring serenity to your living space by looking to the treasures for which the East has long been known.

For British-born furniture designer Andrianna Shamaris, the Japanese concept of beauty in imperfection isn’t limited to her Wabi Sabi collection. She embraces it in her New York City apartment as well. In the living area, for instance, she retained the fireplace’s original black marble while swathing its frame and the rest of the room in bright white.

“We left the fireplace very clean and wabi-sabi, so that it blended into the wall,” says Shamaris, who further appointed the space with a hand-carved antique daybed whose plush pillows are upholstered in antique textiles from the Indonesian island of Sumba.

In the growing antique and vintage Asian art and furniture collection on 1stDibs, find ceramics from China, antiquities from Cambodia and a vast range of tables, seating, dining chairs and other items from Japan, India and other countries.
