With cover artwork specially created by Ruscha, this book documents
hundreds of projects and miscellaneous ephemera produced by the
artist alongside his main oeuvre-including installations, films,
painted book covers, contour gauge profiles, and more Introducing
readers to the stunning breadth of Edward Ruscha's (b. 1937)
creative output over the course of his entire life, this book
includes materials dating back to his childhood and extending to
his present-day output. The projects featured here fall outside
Ruscha's production of paintings, drawings, prints, and artists'
books. Many of these are unknown and most are reproduced here for
the first time. Composed of three sections-Projects and Ephemera;
Contour Gauge Profiles; and Painted Book Covers-the book offers
Ruscha enthusiasts and scholars a hitherto unknown aspect of
Ruscha's practice, while also showing how these projects coincide
with, and sometimes even prefigure, the artistic work for which he
is best known. The approximately 270 painted book covers, begun in
1990, utilize found books as support for small paintings and
drawings. The 57 contour gauge profiles are silhouette-like
profiles made using a mechanical device for reproducing contours.
The largest section, Projects and Ephemera, consists of
installations, sculpture and objects, films, book and poster
design, utilitarian works, and more. Distributed for Gagosian
