About the Item

Allan D'Arcangelo Paris Review, 1964-5 Silkscreen 32 × 26 inches Signed and numbered from the limited Edition of 150 pencil signed, numbered and dated on the front Unframed Published by the Paris Review, Printed by Steven Poleskie at Chiron Press, New York Allan D'Arcangelo created this work in 1964 as a benefit print for the eponymous Paris Review magazine which invited some of the most famous artists of the era to contribute. Over the next decade, D'Arcangelo would continue to receive significant recognition in the art world - exhibiting at Fischbach and then Marlborough Galleries in Manhattan. He was well known for his paintings of the iconic American highway, along with his depictions of desolate, industrial landscapes. In her essay "Ghost on the Highway: Allan D'arcangelo's Haunting Americana", Alice Bucknell writes, "A born-and-bred New Yorker, D’Arcangelo spent his due time trawling through the Bible Belt of the Deep South and the dizzying expanse of the Southwest desert as well as the more expected outposts of New York and L.A. Taking a particular favor to the way acrylic interacts with light — how it avoids the glistening sheen of oil, and how the flatness of the medium masks the presence of the artist’s hand — D’Arcangelo teases out complex ideas of the highway’s reality and representation, its rampant commercialization and maddening isolation, as well as escapism and entrapment as two split personalities of American infrastructure space through his signature flattening one-point perspective. “My most profound experiences of landscape were looking through the windshield,” D’Arcangelo explained to Marco Livingstone in the spring of 1988 while the two drove from New York City to the artist’s studio in upstate New York: an idiosyncratic interview included in the exhibition catalogue. “The sky, the tree line and the pavement all have the same quality, and it has to do with our separation from the natural world.” Far from the sugar highs of Pop and the exit strategy fantasies of the freeway celebrated by Kerouac’s crew, D’Arcangelo’s work breaks down its iconography, re-assembling these symbols and signs into a world that is legible but impossible to navigate..." Allan D'Arcangelo Biography Allan D’Arcangelo was an American painter and printmaker. Born in Buffalo, New York in 1930, D’Arcangelo studied painting in Mexico City from 1957 to 1959 under the G.I. Bill with modernist artist and critic John Golding. D’Arcangelo returned to New York in 1959, and in 1963, his reputation as a seminal Pop artist was solidified with his first solo exhibition in New York’s Fischbach Gallery in which he showed his acrylic paintings of American highways and industrial landscapes. He continued to show throughout the 1960s, and in 1971 just joined Marlborough Gallery. During the five decades of his career, D’Arcangelo remained true to his unique interpretation of the modern American landscape, creating iconic, large-scale paintings of road signs, highways, and airplanes. D’Arcangelo also taught throughout his career at the School of Visual Arts and Brooklyn College, and he received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1988-87. By his death in 1998, D’Arcangelo was the subject of many one-man shows at such influential institutions as the Albright-Knox Art Gallery (Buffalo), and the Institute of Contemporary Art (Chicago), as well as in several group shows at the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), the Hirshhorn Museum (Washington D.C.), and the Museum of Modern Art (New York), where Pegasus was shown in their 1965-66 exhibition, Around the Automobile. His work is in the collections of the Guggenheim Museum (New York); the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York); the Museum of Modern Art (New York); the Walker Art Center (Minneapolis); the Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris); and the Museum Ludwig (Cologne). -Courtesy Hollis Taggart
