This is the third volume in the ongoing series documenting Ruschas
entire corpus of paintings. As in the previous two volumes, each
painting is given a double-page spread with exhibition and
bibliographic history, and is reproduced in colour. The artists
notebook sketches for paintings are reproduced in facsimile.This
volume contains 165 paintings and, in addition, includes a major
public commission for the Philip Johnson-designed Miami-Dade Public
Library, which was a watershed mark for Ruscha. Paintings done
immediately prior to this commission can be seen as a summation of
the artists earlier preoccupations and techniques, while those done
after the commission show a major shift in Ruschas direction
occasioned by the artists use of airbrush techniques to produce
dark, atmospheric canvases that correspond to film noir and such
Los Angeles writers as Raymond Chandler. The book includes an
introductory essay by the editor, Robert Dean, and a personal
tribute by artist Lawrence Weiner. It contains a chronology to
1987, as well as a comprehensive bibliography and list of
exhibitions.
