Evelyn Ackerman ERA Signed Mid-Century Modern Woven Floral Tapestry Wall Hanging

About the Item

A fantastic work by famed Mid-Century Modern designer Evelyn Ackerman. Bright and intensely colorful with an elegant design. Evelyn, along with her husband Jerome, began her career in design primarily in ceramics in the early 1950s. In the late 1950s, the Ackermans put their ceramics aside to expand their art forms and run their design company ERA Studio. One of their focuses was woven art wall hangings/ tapestries and rugs that Evelyn designed as part of their ERA line. The Ackerman's works have been exhibited in various galleries and museums including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. They are also recipients of the Henry Award from the Museum of California Design (MOCAD), Los Angeles for their contributions to California design. This handwoven/hooked piece is signed by Evelyn with her traditional "E A" initials on the lower front and studio label on verso. The tapestry was hand-made in Osaka, Japan. Evelyn's tapestries and rugs are becoming quite scarce and rare, especially in this condition. Would be a wonderful addition to any collectors of the Ackerman's work or an eye-catching stand-alone work in any setting, Mid-Century Modern or otherwise. Dimensions: 18" high, 18" wide, .25" deep.

  • Charles Levier Signed Large Mid-Century Modern French Oil Painting Recling Nude
    By Charles Levier
    Located in Studio City, CA
    A beautiful, engaging, and somewhat rare original large oil on board nude painting by French artist Charles Levier (1920-2003). Levier was born in 1920 to a French father and an American mother in Corsica. At the age of 17, he studies at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs. His studies were interrupted by World War II during which time Levier served in the French Army in North Africa and later became a liaison officer with the U.S. Office of Strategic Services. This would inspire him to move to the United States to pursue a career in art (he spent his future years between America and France). His first one-man show took place in 1949 in Lyons at the Galerie Constantine. The following year he had his first solo exhibition in America. In 1955 his work was on exhibit at the Galleries de Colisee in Paris. Today Levier's work can be found in numerous prominent collections and museums including: The Museum of Modern Art in Paris The Menton Museum in Paris The Atlanta Museum, GA The Seattle Museum, WA The Evansville Museum, IN The New Orleans Museum, LA The San Diego Museum, CA The work is signed by Levier at the lower left within the image.
