We are thrilled to announce that Jim Isermann, renowned for his bold, graphic paintings and contributions to the Tesselle Collection, including the popular Hedge and Polygonal Cement Tiles, has an exciting new exhibition, Wrapture, opening at the Pacific Design Center from May 2 to June 29, 2024. This comprehensive survey of Isermann's work from 1986 to the present will feature his dynamic vinyl decal and painting works, highlighting his exploration of pattern, color theory, and geometry. Notable for seamlessly integrating fine art with mid-century design and decorative craft, Isermann's art is housed in prestigious collections such as the Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. We invite all Tesselle customers to join us for the opening reception on May 2 and a special reception on May 30 celebrating Pride Week, offering a unique opportunity to experience Isermann’s distinctive artistic vision up close.
