Esoteric Survey

A mix of Downtown Modernism and other pick ups from the weekend. This is the second straight Downtown Modernism that I bought a Lawenda Lamp.  There is also Design Line, James Lovera and Laura Andreson. A 1950s sign for Redondo Beach architect, Corwin Eberting AIA  Post-Modern Time Last but certainly not least, a Magdalena Suarez Frimkess dog.

The Bill Curry exhibition by Reform Gallery at the Parachute Market in downtown Los Angeles The Curry family and a couple of collectors worked with Reform, so the collection was quite impressive. The mold to the Stemlite globe is on top of the far pedestal. The Stemlite factory mold Cattail Screen Painting by Bill Curry Sweet ephemera NFS  had a nice spread, including this Cees Braakman table.  ..also this Architectural Fiberglass trashcan. So stealth. There was also a lot of really good contemporary art and design at the market.  I'm a vintage guy so I failed to capture most of it. I did get a photo of the  Ricky Clifton installation from the Window .
