JD Malat Gallery is pleased to present 'Behind the scenes', a mini documentary giving exclusive insight into the inner workings of the gallery in preparation for 'Whiplines, Waterfalls and Worms' by the legendary Ed Moses. 'Whiplines, Waterfalls and Worms', brings together the late works of Ed Moses. Born in Long Beach, California, Moses is renowned for his eclectic body of work which engages with the varying possibilities of abstraction. Moses was among the first generation of artists to be shown at Ferus Gallery, L.A., in 1957, where he started the ‘Cool School’ of artists which included Ed Ruscha, Robert Irwin, Larry Bell, Edward Kienholz, John Altoon, Ken Price and Billy Al Bengston. Curated in collaboration with the Ed Moses Studio, and accompanied by an essay by Dr Richard Davey, the writer and friend of the late Moses, 'Whiplines, Waterfalls and Worms' unveils the exploratory thread of ‘mark making’ that runs through the work of Moses’ later years.
Special thanks; Dr Richard Davey, JD Malat Gallery, Ed Moses Studio
