[edit] Ruscha- a printmaker?

I have replaced the word "printmaker" with "photographer." I have studied Ruscha before, and as far as I know he has never been a prominent printmaker, though he has made lithographs before. Next to his occupation as a painter, he is most famous for his works as a photographer. As such, i have replaced "printmaker" with "photographer." Feel free to change it back, if you know otherwise.

[edit] Discussion of his work

I feel that a more accurate discussion of his work is needed. There are several errors in the one already up. PRIOR to the 1980s, Ruscha was already working with dried vegetable and other various organic pigments. Moreover, his incorporation of a motif of shadowed rays of light also appeared way before the 1980s. If i have more time, I will write up something. Other ideas or input is appreciated.Tylercos 21:46, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
