Edward Ruscha by Lisa Turvey

An immense contribution to scholarship on Ed Ruscha and his pioneering artistic practice, offering thorough documentation of his works on paper
“The book, in its totality from page to page, can actually be read as. . a long synesthetic poem, one that imagines a shape, color, and sound for words and speaks to our profoundest understanding of human expression . . . [with] a bone-dry wit lurking behind nearly every image.”—Albert Mobilio, Bookforum -- Albert Mobilio * Bookforum *
“This catalogue raisonné . . . demonstrate[s] the artist’s fascination with text-as-subject and the iconography of Los Angeles”—Art in America * Art in America *
Lisa Turvey is a writer and editor based in New York. Harry Cooper is curator of modern art at the National Gallery, Washington.
