Ed Ruscha

U.S. b. 1937
America Her Best Product

---

Ruscha said of this image, "Somewhere there should be a stamp or impression (I get the impression) that America has made herself. And isn't she her best product?" Ruscha was born in Omaha, Nebraska and studied art in Los Angeles. His more conventional images come from popular culture, however, he is also known for his use of experimental processes and materials, often using foods or blood in his art.
