The preview is on at Los Angeles Modern Auctions!  I’ve chosen to showcase a few of my favorite abstract pieces from their online catalogue, but there’s so much more to see.

Imagine an Isamu Noguchi Chess Table with an estimate of $100,000 – $150,000,  or a Charles & Ray Eames Shell Armchair with an estimate of $600 – $900.  There’s also several pieces of furniture by Frank Lloyd Wright ranging from $6,00 – $20,000,  and Post Modern furniture by Ettore Sottsass and Robert Venturi ($4,000 – $6,000 and $3,000 – $5,000 respectively). Photographs by Julius Shulman, pottery, patio furniture, woven wool tapestries… you name it, there’s a little something for everyone at a wide range of price points. It feels like an episode of Ab Fab with Patsy and Edina screaming names, names, names sweetie darling. It’s a veritable who’s who of 20th century modernism.  With nearly 25 years in the business, LAMA is the premier auction house on the West Coast to buy and sell Modern Art and Design.

Preview: May 9 – 21, (10am – 6pm PT)

Auction: Sunday, May 22, 2016 (12pm PT)
