Skirting the obvious use of airbrush, Ruscha attempts to shatter forms and skew perspectives flirting with a style sometimes devoid of the artist's hand, infusing warmth in color and tone. Ruscha has likened his process to playing the ancient Theremin synthesizer, an instrument controlled without physical contact by the musician.
Art and music have always gone hand in hand for Ruscha. Eddie has released
many records over the years on respected labels, producing different styles of electronic psychedelic music in addition to creating much of the visual art to accompany it. Recent projects include “Green Mirror” (Secret Circuit) and “Who Are You” (E Ruscha V), as well as composing score for film and ambient soundscapes for the ongoing series of “Slow Show” performances choreographed by Dimitri Chamblas and presented at The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) Los Angeles, Lafayette Anticipation, Paris and LUMA, Arles.
Eddie Ruscha graduated from California Institute of Art in 1991.His work has been in numerous exhibitions including The London Institute, Fonds Regional d’Art Contemporain, among many others.
