Although graphic artist Ruscha may not be quite as well-known to all readers of this blog as the Eamses, he studied art in the mid-50s and had his first solo exhibition in 1963, so the roots of his work...particularly the "word art" for which he's best known...are firmly planted in the mid-century era.
