Ed Ruscha - Thirty Four Parking Lots in Los Angeles - Edward Ruscha 1967

Probably his most iconic artist's book, Parking Lots reflects Ed Ruscha's interest in serial imagery, topography, mapping, and car culture, presenting the urban landscape as a geometric design with the artist’s inimitable deadpan style.
Made from a helicopter in Southern California early on a Sunday morning, the aerial photographs of mostly empty parking lots show the rapidly growing urban sprawl of Los Angeles including Dodgers Stadium, Universal Studios, Good Year Tires, and Sears, Roebuck & Co.
Offset printed by Blair Litho, Los Angeles in 1967 in a first edition of 2,413.
