Another Twenty-Six Gas Stations

Gregory Eddi Jones’ Another Twenty-Six Gas Stations has as its direct antecedent and inspiration a book entitled Twentysix Gasoline Stations (National Excelsior Press, 1963) by renowned photographer and painter Ed Ruscha. While produced over half a century ago, a brief consideration of Ruscha’s work in the context of its era remains quite relevant to the interpretation of Jones’ work.
