Ed Ruscha: Catalogue Raisonné of Paintings

This very attractive website catalogs the work of the Nebraska-born artist, Ed Ruscha. The site is elegant in its simple scheme of gray text on a cream background, red hyperlinks, and floating menu at the top of each page. Visitors unfamiliar with the paintings, drawings, photography and artist's books of Ed Ruscha should check out the "Biography" link to learn about his work that "combine[s] the cityscape of his adopted hometown with vernacular language to communicate a particular urban experience." A link to the "Chronology" of his life and work can be found underneath his picture, on the same page as the biography. The link to his "Work" is on the right hand side of the menu, and when clicked, visitors will be transported to a page of search options. The titles can be searched via keyword, or a year can be chosen from a list of years ranging from 1958 to 1992. Each year provides thumbnails of his work that can be enlarged by a click. Visitors interested in viewing his bright, colorful paintings, which are also still quite mysterious, should check out his earlier works from the 1960s to early 1980s.
