A fine quintet of works from the ‘Night Swimmers’ series ships to London, for a project with Verdigris Art of London. A big thank you to their art procurement team and I very much look forward to seeing these four pieces in their new home.
New images have recently been added to the series and are available by contacting me.

Not every piece of furniture and accessory needs to be a showstopper. A single distinctive object can create a focal point and enhance the appearance of a larger space.
“One special thing can elevate a whole room,” said Vanessa Alexander, the founder of Alexander Design, in Santa Monica, Calif. “We always try to include something vintage or one of a kind in every room. It’s something that can’t be easily replicated and has a story.”
In one Malibu, Calif., home, Ms. Alexander added a 1950s chair by Osvaldo Borsani to a corner of the living room. It is as much a sculptural element, she noted, as a place to sit.
For her own home in Malibu, she found a perforated, brass-globe pendant lamp at a flea market and had it rewired as a statement piece for a sunroom. “It adds a textural moment,” she said. “And at night, it gives off a pattern” when illuminated.
