NEW YORK — Ed Ruscha (b. 1937-) has been closely associated with the Pop Art movement but his work transcends Pop, having roots in Dadaism, Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism while aligning with Conceptual art. Known for his inventive oeuvre that elevates mere words to art forms, his work spans painting, printmaking, film, drawing and photography. Ruscha has been experimenting with prints for more than 50 years, and for about as long, eager collectors have acquired Ruscha prints for reasonable sums.
