Dog

A striking example of Ed Ruscha's iconic engagement with language as image, *Dog* presents the simple, familiar word rendered with the artist's characteristic graphic precision and deadpan wit. Created in 1994 and published by Mixographia Workshop in Los Angeles, this print is part of a limited edition of 75, highlighting Ruscha's longstanding exploration of text, meaning, and American vernacular culture. The work exemplifies his ability to transform an ordinary word into a charged visual object, inviting viewers to reconsider the relationship between language and perception.

Medium
signed, dated `94' and numbered 28/75 in pencil (there were also 7 artist's proofs), published by Mixographia Workshop, Los Angeles, framed.
