Literature Siri Engberg 31 Catalogue Essay Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road Read More Artist Bio Ed Ruscha American • 1937 Follow Quintessentially American, Ed Ruscha is an L.A.-based artist whose art, like California itself, is both geographically rooted and a metaphor for an American state of mind.
