Photography has played a central role in Ed Ruscha's artistic
practice, most notably in the photobooks he began publishing in
1963. Highlighting important recent acquisitions by the Getty
Museum and the Getty Research Institute, this exhibition features a
selection of prints and materials related to Twentysix Gasoline
Stations (1963), Some Los Angeles Apartments (1965), and Every
Building on the Sunset Strip (1966).
Also on view for the first time are contact sheets from his shoot
of the Pacific Coast Highway (1974-75), one of the many streets he
has documented extensively since 1965. The exhibition offers a
concentrated look at Ruscha's engagement with vernacular
architecture, the urban landscape, and car culture.
