Additional Details: This is an original lithograph designed by iconic American artist and graphic designer John Van Hamersveld, titled Design Support, created for an exhibition held at The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Los Angeles in 1980. Van Hamersveld, known for his influential visual contributions to pop culture—including the legendary Endless Summer poster and album covers for The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Jimi Hendrix—brought his bold, graphic sensibility to the contemporary art world with this MOCA commission. Design Support reflects his signature blend of psychedelic color, optical geometry, and modernist aesthetics. The piece not only commemorates an early MOCA exhibition but also stands as a testament to Van Hamersveld’s ability to bridge fine art, commercial design, and countercultural influence. Highly collectible, this lithograph captures a pivotal moment in Los Angeles’ emerging contemporary art scene, while showcasing the unique vision of one of America's most enduring graphic innovators.
