HATJE CANTZ

Ed Ruscha: Very

Works from the UBS Art Collection

Edited by Mary Rozell.

Ed Ruscha: Very

With his iconic interpretations of American society and imagery, Ed Ruscha (born 1937) stands out as one of the most prominent figures of 20th-century American art. Ruscha's art is closely associated with his cool, elegant representations of stylized gas stations, Hollywood logos and archetypal landscapes.

Since the beginning of the 1960s, no other artist has so radically interpreted the development of modern visual culture in and around Los Angeles, the city where the artist still lives and works. Deriving his motifs from the perspective of the road, the windshield and the movie screen, Ruscha's work gives a distinctive sense of LA as a huge, flat city space located in the desert.

Ed Ruscha: Very brings together works on paper from the UBS Art Collection for an international retrospective, surveying Ruscha's work from its beginnings in 1960 onward, with particular attention to the technically and graphically innovative approaches that the artist has implemented over the years.

George Condo on Ed Ruscha in 'Very'

George Condo on Ed Ruscha

Ed Ruscha's 1973 gunpowder drawing, "Year After Year," is reproduced from Very, Hatje Cantz's beautifully produced collection of 50 works on paper from the renowned UBS Art Collection—published to accompany the show currently on view at the Louisiana Museum, Denmark. Hats off to the publishers for their presentation of fellow artist George Condo's sorta wild, highly insightful three-part text on Ruscha, which reads in part: "in his own private laboratory he could develop new formulas to bring the world art they had never experienced before..he used materials unheard of as his alchemical process emerged from gunpowder to grape juice..he found words as strange in combination with other words as his materials were to the standard kit of oil paint .yet the fascinating and ingenious part was all of us knew the words they were not ones you had to look up in the oxford dictionary..they were so obvious that they could be sitting right next to you and you would never have noticed them,,like a brother or sister."
