Cotton Puffs, Q-Tips, Smoke, and Mirrors: The Drawings of Ed Ruscha

by Margit Rowell, Cornelia Butler, and Cornelia H. Butler

Ed Rucha, who is also known for his paintings and his idiosyncratic photo books (depicting serial images of gas stations, parking lots and other banal sights), has been working on paper since the late 1950s. Magrit Rowell tracks the various themes and styles of his drawings, while essayist Cornelia Butler adds additional art world context. This book accompanies an exhibition of Ed Ruscha's work on paper organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, 2004. 256 pp. Whitney Museum of American Art, 2004. Cloth.
