Allan D'Arcangelo (American, 1930-1998) was an American Pop artist known for his graphic paintings and prints of highways and road signs. Showing a penchant for vibrant colors and sharp geometric shapes, D'Arcangelo composed his imagery with a restrained yet exacting manner. By the early 1970s, D'Arcangelo had established himself as a seminal part of the New York art scene alongside figures such as Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol. In the following decades, the artist became less prolific but continued pushing his work into new directions. He died on December 17, 1998 in New York, NY. Today, D'Arcangelo's works are held in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, among others. - 47 x 41"
