ED RUCHA'S STREETS OF LOS ANGELES

In 1966, Ed Ruscha drove a car rigged with a motorized camera to capture Los Angeles' most iconic street: Sunset Boulevard. Navigating the boulevard, he created a time capsule of its famed facades, beginning an almost sixty-year-long commitment to documenting the changing urban landscape of postwar Los Angeles. The Streets of Los Angeles Project that comprises these photographs is likely the most comprehensive artistic record of any city, with over 900,000 images of major thoroughfares.
