Editions 1962-1999 is a collection of works by American conceptual artist Ed Ruscha. Ed Ruscha creates art through various means of expression, including painting, photography, printmaking, film, and drawing. Originally a graphic designer, his pop art-like works that reference commercial advertisements are a symbol of postwar America, and are even described as a symbol of postwar American art. His unique style, which is both easy to understand and difficult to understand, has been seen as a source of artistic potential from various perspectives. Ruscha, who asserts that photography is only one means of expression, is also famous for leaving behind many works in the form of "books" (zines) using photography in the 1960s and 1970s. This book is a catalogue raisonné published on the occasion of a major retrospective exhibition that crossed the United States from 1999 to 2001, starting with the Walker Art Center. In addition to all the copies of the zines mentioned above, this book also introduces graphic work such as posters and prints, making it a must-have for Ed Ruscha fans.
