This series of tapestries extends Ed Moses’s career-long investigation of the relationship between dynamic, spontaneous mark-making and a disciplined approach to composition. The strong formal balance of these works is offset by their uninhibited liveliness; to create the paintings on which the tapestries were based, Moses worked outdoors on a driveway, laying his canvas on wooden panels and zealously applying metallic paints with a mop. Silver and bronze threads were used to capture the “pop” of Moses’s metallic strokes aginst their dramatic backdrops of deep blues and volcanic reds.
