Ed Moses
LA — SAN FRANCISCO

In celebration of his 90th birthday, Brian Gross Fine Art is pleased to announce the opening of an exhibition of new paintings by internationally renowned artist, Ed Moses. ED MOSES: LA – SAN FRANCISCO opens July 9, 2016, with a reception from 4–6 pm. On view will be a selection of recent diagonal and rectilinear grid paintings, motifs he has explored since the 1970s. The exhibition will be on view through August 27, 2016.

Ed Moses is one of the original artists affiliated with the legendary Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles, where he had his first show of abstract paintings in 1958. The driving force behind the creation of his work is the intuitive process of painting, in which Moses emphasizes gesture, mark making, and exploration of the painted surface. In the mid-1970s, Moses began employing the use of diagonal grids in his paintings as a vehicle to further explore spatial depth and pattern. He has returned to this motif continually throughout his career, each time discovering new territories. Moses states, “People say I am always changing the way I paint, but I don’t change, the paintings mutate.”

July 9 - August 27, 2016
Opening reception: Saturday, July 9, 4-6 pm
