Fine gray cloth-covered boards, with title stamped in silver on cover and spine, no dust jacket as issued; contained in a heavy gray cardboard slipcase with title stamped in silver on both sides. Paintings and text by Edward Ruscha. Essays by Robert Dean, Dave Hickey and Larence Weiner. Edited by Robert Dean, with Erin Wright.

Book 11-5/8 x 9-5/8 inches; slipcase 12-1/8 x 10 inches. Fine. From the publisher: "This is the third volume in the ongoing series documenting Ruscha's entire corpus of paintings. As in the previous two volumes, each painting is given a double-page spread with exhibition and bibliographic history, and is reproduced in color. The artist's notebook sketches for paintings are reproduced in facsimile. This volume contains 165 paintings and, in addition, includes a major public commission for the Philip Johnson-designed Miami-Dade Public Library, which was a watershed mark for Ruscha. Paintings done immediately prior to this commission can be seen as a summation of the artist's earlier preoccupations and techniques, while those done after the commission show a major shift in Ruscha's direction occasioned by the artist's use of airbrush techniques to produce dark, atmospheric canvases that correspond to film noir and such Los Angeles writers as Raymond Chandler. The book includes an introductory essay by the editor, Robert Dean, and a personal tribute by artist Lawrence Weiner. It contains a chronology to 1987, as well as a comprehensive bibliography and list of exhibitions.".…

"Although known for his paintings and drawings, California artist Ed Ruscha has also attracted critical attention for his photography. A new exhibition and accompanying catalogue, Ed Ruscha, Photographer, depart from earlier books to explore how the artist`s different disciplines - painting, drawing, printmaking, and photography - are guided and shaped by a single vision. Ruscha`s relationship to photography is complex and ambivalent, and the work is difficult to define. He has referred to this photography as a "hobby" but from the outset it has drawn considerable critical interest. the small books of photographs that ruscha produced in the sixties and seventies earned him a reputation as an underground artist among his peers, and have influenced subsequent generations of artists in Europe and North America. The photographs were snapshot size, with an amateurish quality that intrigued his contemporaries. Neither purely documentary nor solely artistic, their subject matter was stereotypical and bnal, with motifs drawn from sites in Southern California or the western United States. This, combined with their serial presentation, created a mythical road-movie or photo-novel effect with Beat Generation innuendos and inspired interest among artists at a time when serial logic was prominent in Pop art and Minimalism, and later in Conceptual art. this Volume, "Ed Ruscha, Photographer", is produced in cojunction with a traveling exhibition to be shown n Europe in 2006, organized by The Witney Museum of American Art, New York. The exhibition photographs have been selected from the collections of the Whitney and the artist by independent curator Margit Rowell, who is also the author of the publication."

He moved to Los Angeles, California and attended Chouinard Art Institute from 1956 to 1960. His work has been exhibited internationally and is represented in major museums and private collections throughout the world. In 2001, Ruscha was elected to The American Academy of Arts & Letters as a member of the Department of Art.

"Ballard''s novels stand among the most visionary, provocative literature of the twentieth century, with his ominous predictions regarding the fate of Western culture and his insights into the dark psychopathology of the human race. This exhibition is a response to the enormous impact and enduring cultural significance of his work, following his death in spring 2009.

[Los Angeles], [Edward Ruscha], 1970. [44] unnumbered pp. [16] monochrome ills (b./w. and pale yellow photographs) by Ed Ruscha. Orig. softcover (printed wrappers) with glassine cover. [18 x 14 cm.]. - Glassine cover sl. discol. on back cover; tiny little light stripe on the front. Second edition, published in a limited edition of 300 copies (The first edition of 196 was published in only 400 copies). - This booklet is Ed Ruscha's second photographically illustrated artist's book. Contains photographic images of fires, including a gas stove, a cigarette, a pipe, a cigar, a welding torch, a highway flare, and more; the final image shows a glass of milk. "Ed Ruscha's works retain their capacity to surprise, delight, and bewilder in equal measure. In the decades since their publication, they have been exhibited, written about, and analyzed extensively, yet somehow they remain objects of mystery and fascination, beguiling in their utter simplicity and unwavering accuracy. At the time of their publication, they were largely overlooked by much of the photography world. The seeming anti-formalism and indifferent technique of Ruscha's photographs were mocked; the perfect formalism of each book as art object was unappreciated. Ruscha's interest in, and indebtedness to, two of photography's greats - Walker Evans and Robert Frank - was also ignored." From: The Photobook: A History Volume II / Martin Parr and Gerry Badger. London, Phaidon, 2004. …

First edition, second issue of the artist's classic work. Small octavo, original stiff self-wrappers, original slipcase. Association copy, inscribed by Ruscha to his aunt, "For Aunt Carol Ed Ruscha." One continuous accordion-fold page composed of glued paper segments with black-and-white photographs of every building on the sunset strip. Near fineÂin a very good slipcase. An exceptional association. In the 1960s, Ed Ruscha more or less reinvented the artistâs book. By turning away from the craftsmanship and luxury status that typified the livre dâartiste in favor of the artistic idea or concept, expressed simply through photographs and text, Ruscha opened the genre to the possibilities of mass-production and distribution. The 27-foot length of the accordion-folded Every Building on the Sunset Strip affords the viewer two continuous photographic views of the mile and a half section of this landmark stretch of Sunset, one for each side of one of the cityâs landmark thoroughfare" (The Getty Research Institute).
