‘A show which is a visual and intellectual pleasure from start to finish’  Financial Times

‘Cool to the core’ London Evening Standard

‘An amazing half-century of work by a master’ Independent on Sunday

'I always feel Ed is just a word away' Dennis Hopper

'Ed is a really lovely guy and you can see that in his work' Sting

'I own an Ed Ruscha work - it's a graphic piece that just says the word SO. I was thinking about making it a collaborative piece by sewing the word WHAT, and hanging them together. For Christmas, Ed gave me a beach towel which I just love to lie on.' Tracey Emin

'Ed is sleek. He is sharp. He is stylish. He is simply stunning. He is his work. He is one cool man with an astonishing voice in the world of contemporary art' Stella McCartney

'Ed Ruscha is the most handsome 'cowboy' artist I've ever seen. I think his paintings are not only beautiful to look at but also have a sad, poetic and painfully truthful commentary on America... He is a true American hero: the lonesome cowboy pointing a finger at our consumer greed' Jerry Hall

'We've never exactly worked together, though Talking Heads did use Ed's picture 'Sand in the Vaseline' for a best-of collection. Sadly, I lost the Ruscha that I owned in the divorce. (That sounds like an Ed piece.)' David Byrne
