| Manana by Ed Ruscha at MOCA |
Joan Lehman Building, 770 NE 125th Street, North Miami, 305-893-6211, Mocanomi.org
Ed Ruscha: On the Road is a show curated by Douglas Fogel and featuring a Los Angeles artist who has created his own limited edition book and new paintings, drawings and photographs inspired by Jack Kerouack’s novel On the Road.
The exhibition, according to MOCA, includes "Ruscha’s edition of Kerouac’s legendary novel, six large paintings on canvas, and 10 drawings on museum board, each taking its text from On the Road. Whether painted over snow-capped mountains in Ruscha’s signature ALL CAP typography or drawn atop delicately spattered abstract backgrounds, Kerouac’s words provide the artist with a means to explore his own archetypal landscape. Isolating key sentences and phrases from the novel for his paintings and drawings such as 'In California you chew the juice out of grapes and spit away the skin, a real luxury,' 'the holy con man began to eat,' or 'fit and slick as a fiddle,' Ruscha adds another layer of deadpan aesthetic analysis to Kerouac’s original and radical use of language." The show opens 7-9 p.m. May 25 and runs through Sept. 2. Admission is $10 for non-members.
