Ed Ruscha (American, born 1937)


1984 (Walk Art Center 6) Lithograph with a touch of hand-colouring, 1967, on wove paper, signed, dated and numbered 48/60 in pencil, published by Gemini G.E.L, Los Angeles, the full sheet, in very good conditionImage 355 x 454mm., Sheet 505 x 633mm.
|Ed Ruscha moved to Los Angeles in 1956 to train as a graphic designer. After that he also studied painting, photography and printmaking – all of which became crucial to his work. Taking inspiration from LA architectural landscapes, billboards, traffic signage and advertising, Ruscha creates the visual depiction of single words, letter blocks and numbers raised against a shaded grey background, emulating the effect of his gunpowder drawings which characterize his prints in late 1960s and early 1970s.Regarding the meaning of '1984', Ed Ruscha explained in an interview in Los Angeles Magazine: ''When I drew 1984—in 1967—I was thinking about the book and the talk at the time that Big Brother was watching you. I put that together with these new funny numerals on my check stubs, and I wondered why they had invented this new vocabulary of numbers. I thought we may never reach that number on our calendar because we might hit some Armageddon. I always liked the idea that it was a few years before its time that I had made this statement in this work. Beyond that, it was fun to make''.
