Screenprint with varnish overlay, on Louvain Opaque Cover wove - Signed, dated and numbered // Ed Ruscha's Raw (1971) is a screenprint with varnish overlay on Louvain Opaque Cover wove, measuring 16 x 26 inches. This minimalist piece features a folded, angular form that appears to emerge from the flat, monochromatic ochre background, creating a sense of depth and three-dimensionality. The clean, precise lines and subtle shadows give the illusion of sculptural paper forms floating in space. Ruscha’s work often explores the interplay between text and form, though this piece takes a more abstract approach, emphasizing simplicity and materiality. The use of varnish overlay adds a tactile quality, enhancing the visual texture and inviting close observation.

What is New Topographics?
New Topographics is a term coined in 1975 by curator William Jenkins to describe a group of photographers whose work focused on formal black-and-white images of urban and industrial landscapes. Jenkins initially described their aesthetic as banal, but the photographers themselves argued that their compositions were as significant as those of natural landscapes, emphasizing the beauty in everyday, man-made environments.
