Conceived as a reader to Ruscha's practice, this publication brings together original contributions and case studies by an international array of renowned art critics and writers including Robert Dean, Lisa Turvey, C馗ile Whiting, Jean-Pierre Criqui, Anne Moeglin-Delcroix, Beno? Buquet, Briony Fer, Linda Norden, Michel Gauthier, Elizabeth A. Kessler, Margit Rowell and John Tain. Among the specific areas discussed are Ruscha's early drawings, his relationship to literature and the Pictures Generation, and the legacy of his artist's book practice. Figures close to the artist propose their own subjective readings of his work as a way to renew our understanding of it. The volume includes a previously unpublished text by the artist and a visual essay by Jean-Pierre Criqui spanning Ruscha's entire oeuvre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ed Ruscha\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3037645385\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783037645383\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jrp Ringier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ed Ruscha","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983452897535,"sku":"9783037645383","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45453575520511,"sku":"9783037645383","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45ba63a6-0f5a-4f98-9b3a-7415a72ecdc3.jpg?v=1683266732","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ed-ruscha-ed-ruscha-9783037645383","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
