Publisher's Synopsis
The oeuvre of the American artist Ed Ruscha is difficult to categorise. On the one hand, his early depictions of company logos, gas stations and department stories are attributed to Pop Art. On the other, based on his painted word pictures and published prints of photographic images, he is primarily perceived as a conceptual artist. This title features Ed Ruscha's books, photographs and pictures from the Udo and Anette Brandhorst collection in Munich.
