ED RUSCHA

SCOTTISH NATIONAL GALLERY OF MODERN ART, EDINBURGH 29 APRIL TO 29 APRIL 2018

Part of the new UK-wide Artist Rooms programme, this solo show documents Ed Ruscha’s Hollywood-inspired take on the American dream, offering insights into his interest in Los Angeles and the West Coast way of life. American popular culture, from architecture and cinema to the automobile industry, often overlaid with text, is at the heart of the artist’s photography-based practice from the 1960s onwards. nationalgalleries.org
