Ed Ruscha - signed scarf, edition of 500, by ruby on Apr 12, 2022 16:13:38 GMT 1, gagosianshop.com/products/ed-ruscha-science-is-truth-found-out-red-edition-silk-scarf
Not my cup of tea, but posting for those interested. Charitable cause too.
From Gagosian:
This limited-edition silk twill scarf by Ed Ruscha, produced by Massif Central, has been released by (RED) and Gagosian. 100% of sales will go to (RED), where the net proceeds raised will support the fight for equitable access to COVID relief in the worldโs most vulnerable communities. Doubling the impact, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will generously match every dollar raised for the Global Fund.
In 1986 Ruscha made the original drawing on which the scarf is based, inspired by a phrase he saw inscribed in stone above the entrance to the science block of Los Angelesโs storied Hollywood High School. In the current global political climate, where suspicion and demonization of science and medicine have been widespread, this prescient image has gained new resonance and topicality. In the processes of revelation in the often circuitous path toward truth, science and scientific thinking intersect with artโprobing and searching intellectually and philosophically while seeking material consequences and outcomes. Like the most elegant of scientific theories, Ruschaโs images and idioms are at once irreducibly straightforward and heroically expansive.
Estimated shipping date: May 10, 2022
Orders will be limited to two editions per customer.

Ed Ruscha - signed scarf, edition of 500, by raindawg on Apr 13, 2022 23:28:31 GMT 1, I know this is a scarf and not a print but surely this is a no brainier at this price?
Where else can you buy a signed Ed Ruscha for under ยฃ1000? Itโs certainly more attractive than dropping a fortune on his Mysteries print if you donโt have the money - and I bet itโll look fantastic framed.

The signature looks so faint already. I bet in a few years it disappears.

It doesnโt look sharp tbf. How long before ink on silk fades? Would the right UV protection help?

Yes double signed like in the poster above - the image plate from the original artwork and by hand on the scarf.

Ed Ruscha - signed scarf, edition of 500, by jamo on Apr 14, 2022 20:55:10 GMT 1, Sorry, but all I can see is the plate signed signature / 86 on the scarf, from the original artwork. Where is the โactualโ signature on these? I recently considered buying the Calleja โsignedโ silk scarf but after several messages, established that the signature was woven onto a label. So not really โsignedโ, despite being advertised as signed. This Ruscha scarf could be similar, but hopefully not, as Iโd buy if it has an actual signature somewhere (even if on the box or a COA). Thanks.

Good decision I reckon raindawg, I think its a really nice item, and will look great framed.
Would you post a picture up when you have framed it? Would be really appreciated here to see the results.

Ed Ruscha - signed scarf, edition of 500, by Jeezuz Jones Snr on Apr 16, 2022 0:44:26 GMT 1, I'm a huge ruscha fan, really tempted. Was thinking as the scarf would be translucent, perhaps it could come up well with back lit LED behind the scarf.
Or could buy an advertising light box and put it straight in there? I think it could look really good.. not an expert but I don't think artificial light would make it fade?

Please pardon my ignorance, but why is the second a bad framing job? First photo looks dodgy even on my phone. Only viewed the photo on my phone, canโt see any major issue with the second.
Really like this scarf and think it will look really good framed the right way, just need to cut spending though ๐
Bought The Black Yoga limited ed scarf by Rashid Johnson a while back. One day I hope to frame it, but it is pretty big. It is made by Massif Central as well and is good quality.
