圖錄文章
Patented by Luis Remba, the Mixografia print process produces highly textured, three-dimensional surfaces. Ruscha created the imagery by burnishing the letterforms into a wax plate. Various grasses he collected were pressed into the wax, then a copper printing plate was made from the wax impression.

艾德．拉斯查
American | 1937Quintessentially American, Ed Ruscha is an L.A.-based artist whose art, like California itself, is both geographically rooted and a metaphor for an American state of mind. Ruscha is a deft creator of photography, film, painting, drawing, prints and artist books, whose works are simultaneously unexpected and familiar, both ironic and sincere.
His most iconic works are at turns poetic and deadpan, epigrammatic text with nods to advertising copy, juxtaposed with imagery that is either cinematic and sublime or seemingly wry documentary. Whether the subject is his iconic Standard Gas Station or the Hollywood Sign, a parking lot or highway, his works are a distillation of American idealism, echoing the expansive Western landscape and optimism unique to postwar America.
