Ed Ruscha - The Tension of Words and Images | Artist Interview | TateShots
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2013
- Ed Ruscha began his career as a layout artist at a Los Angeles advertising agency in the late 1950s. He has continued to draw on this background, producing works that demonstrate an ongoing interest in typography, signage and the West Coast of the United States.
His creates paintings in which text is superimposed over landscapes and traditional American vistas, where the bold lettering is in complete opposition to the idyllic, idealised and somewhat kitsch representations of the images. Through this playful and characteristically enigmatic conflation of image and text, Ruscha explores the viewer's interpretation of language and transforms the words into subjects in themselves.

Pay Nothing Until April , that's my favorite. The studio is wonderful space.
Interesting to learn about his process. Thank you very much.
Woke up this morning thinking about Ed Ruscha for some reason.Maybe tomorrow I'll think about Chris Burden.
He basically created memes before they were ever a thing...
Very thoughtful work by a very thoughtful artist.
Love his work and hearing about his working process
Ed is my spirit animal.
I thought he was a really nice guy when I met him 3 years ago. A large strong body of work too!

I love the "Hollywood Tantrum" ! I've thrown one ...
Great to see Mr. Ruscha still pushing forward. Who is printing his latest work?
+Timothy Lee Crown Point Press released 3 new prints last year.
good workshop/studio
create more tension, great
The opposite sense of rotation, as in anticlockwise, a circular movement, so as to be moving to the left at the top of the circle and to the right at the bottom•
greAT!!
Of course the artist doesn't mention that, but picture and typography is automatically a really nice contrast.
I guess its also just a formal decision, not only one of content.
if I pretend that the English version of Ed also applys to Italian version of Mr. Rusha ... that it would be like an illegal art deal via Paris a lá Nueva York
♡
Did virgil know him before off White? Lmao
It's classic fonts not making a statement
His work has always kinda struck me as, " been there, done that ... can you show me something more creative ? "
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
This is painful
Poor dog I liked my own commet how sad.
nah
this is art? like, fine art? Really?
Perception by the minority - again. If I do it I'm a bum. If Ruscha does it he's a genius.
imm a bernie bro i dont like bloomberg
If this is art then I am gay
Dislike this kind of "art" intensely. But... whatever floats your boat.
I don't dislike it but the phrases he uses are....I dunno awkward, like Bliss Bucket & Wall rocket - maybe I just don't get it!
Do some real work Ed. That's shit is just lazy.
