Peter Shire Exp Signed Ceramic Pottery Splatter Tall Mug Sculpture, Dated 1981
About the Item
A wonderful 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 work is from 1981 and is signed with Shire's customary "EXP" pottery (Echo Park Pottery which he started in 1972) seal/stamp and impressed "EXP Rolle ‘n W/ Rolando 1981 A.D." These early works are becoming quite rare and scarce. A unique and one-of-a-kind work.
Would be a great addition to any modern ceramic or California Pottery collection or admirers of the artist's work.
