Ed Ruscha on Marcel Duchamp | Artists on Art
LACMA’s Artists on Art videos offer insights into works in the museum’s encyclopedic collection that have inspired and informed artists working today. Looking at art through their eyes, we hear directly from artists about works that intrigue them and have fed their own creativity.
For Artists on Art, Ed Ruscha speaks on With Hidden Noise by Marcel Duchamp.
An icon of West Coast Pop, Ed Ruscha is known for his works in a wide variety of media; his images are typically text-based and/or depict the deadpan yet nonetheless expressive landscapes of his adoptive state of California. He frequently portrays gas stations, parking lots, swimming pools, the Hollywood sign, and many other aspects of Los Angeles and its surroundings. LACMA owns almost 500 works by Ruscha, including the celebrated 1962 painting Actual Size.

Marcel hated painting and just wanted to play chess
À bruit secret
I like Duchamp but he was also a massive troll. I have mixed feelings about the legacy he left behind in terms on his influence on contemporary artists. Duchamp remained funny but some of the shit going round today is neither clever nor funny.
mehhhhh
Yes to Duchamp but sadly no to Ruscha.
