A sweeping survey of Ed Ruscha’s six-decade career, Ed Ruscha / Now & Then brings together more than 250 works—from paintings and drawings to photographs, films, prints, installations, and his pioneering artist’s books. Published to accompany MoMA’s most comprehensive Ruscha retrospective, the richly illustrated volume highlights both iconic pieces and lesser-known experiments, including his use of unconventional materials like gunpowder and chocolate.

Essays by leading scholars offer fresh perspectives beyond the usual Pop and Conceptual art framing, underscoring Ruscha’s lasting influence on postwar American art. Complete with an illustrated chronology and exhibition history, this catalog captures the continual reinvention that defines Ruscha’s remarkable career.
