Design and Decoration The Alan Moss Collection
October 7 2014 at Wright

Focusing on quality, Alan Moss has an eye for not only those rare high points
of 20th century design, but also for those objects which represent
over a century of decorative evolution. — Brent Lewis, Director, Wright

"Alan Moss, a fixture of New York City for over forty years, has been among the city’s important dealers since the very beginning of the 20th century market. Alan’s eponymous shop has long been frequented by interior designers, celebrities and design aficionados.

“Focusing on quality, Alan Moss has an eye for not only those rare high points of 20th century design, but also for those objects which represent over a century of decorative evolution,” notes Brent Lewis, Director of Wright’s New York location. “Whether it is the style of Paul Poiret, the substance of Donald Deskey or the surrealism of Piero Fornasetti, Alan’s inclusive and eclectic taste has long influenced, and in many cases defined, the market for 20th century decorative art and design.”

Comprised of nearly 300 lots, Design and Decoration: The Alan Moss Collection attests to Moss’s deep appreciation for quality, workmanship, material, finish, and ultimately, decoration. Outstanding examples of early modernism are presented alongside midcentury & postwar designs, including works by Gio Ponti, Donald Deskey, Georges Jouve, Karl Springer and Jacques Adnet, among others.
