クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「In 'City, with Marbles', one of only three ribbon paintings created by Ed Ruscha and the only one left in private hands, Ruscha presents a painted image of the word City orbited by two synchronized marbles at upper left and lower right; a miniature self-sustaining constellation of form independent from — yet surviving within — the earth's familiar atmosphere.⠀ .⠀ Ed Ruscha's career started out in graphic design and a love of typography and everyday subject matter remained a significant source of inspiration for the artist. By the time this painting was created in 1969, the artist had made his home in Los Angeles, and the influence of the city's cinematic history is apparent. Like the iconic HOLLYWOOD sign, the subject here is illuminated with an unseen light-source unseen and is incongruous with the natural beauty of the rendered evening light.⠀ .⠀ Ed Ruscha (b. 1937), 'City, with Marbles', 1969. Estimate: $2,500,000 – 3,500,000.⠀ .⠀ Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale — 7 October, New York.⠀ .⠀ #art #artist #ruscha #edruscha #postwarart #edruscha #christiesoctober2020」10月3日 4時39分
