About the Item
A wonderful and extremely rare/scarce early work by famed Los Angeles (Echo Park), California-based artist Peter Shire who was a founding member (along with Italian designer Ettore Sottsass and others) of The Memphis Group, an international design movement that came out of Italy during the 1980s (1980-1988), and specialized in postmodern furniture, lighting, fabrics, carpets, ceramics, glass, and metal objects.
This beautifully glazed blue-hued cup is signed (with Shire's customary "EXP" stamp)and dated (1979 A.D.) by Shire on the base. These early works are becoming quite rare and scarce.
Would be a great addition to any post-modern ceramic or California Pottery collection or admirers of the artist's work or eye-catching stand-alone piece in about any setting.
