PAST EXHIBITIONEd Ruscha: Gunpowder Ribbon Drawings
October 24, 2007—December 15, 2007 The exhibition presents a selection of Ed Ruscha’s drawings from 1967-70 that feature single words depicted in a trompe l’oeil technique, as if the words are formed from ribbons of curling paper. The words are short and snappy, such as Quit and Eye, and by their removal from a linguistic context, they assume a new character – text becomes image, and image becomes text. |
