Reading Ed Ruscha highlights the artist's enduring fascination with books, writing, and reading over five decades. In his work, words and text serve as motifs, symbols, or tangible objects, while the act of reading is examined and manipulated through various artistic approaches. The essays by Douglas Coupland and W. S. Di Piero explore this theme in a literary-poetic style. Beatrice von Bismarck analyzes the book's status as a work, a publishing medium, and an exhibition format, while Yilmaz Dziewior provides an overview of Ruscha's engagement with books and his connection to the written word. Accompanied by large-format illustrations of the exhibited works and exhibition views, this catalogue is complemented by a comprehensive appendix, enriching the exploration of Ruscha's artistic journey.
