Ed Ruscha






This is an artist who’s work I have only just become familiar with. His work is rich is experimentation, working with printed matter, graphic design, cinema, photography, painting and drawing he is strongly inspired by the flattened cultural landscape of the American West.

His work is highly conceptual and each piece has a fascinating story to go with it. However, I am just astounded by his use of text with imagery; I feel there is a great harmony between the two within his work. And I am very glad to have discovered him for myself!
