Meaning & Analysis
Against the backdrop of vintage motel signage, a row of lovingly maintained classic cars, complete with dashboard dice, takes centre stage in Dylan's 2016 Classic Car Show, Cleveland, OH. This signed giclée print from an edition of 295 honours the passionate car culture that thrives in Ohio's post-industrial communities, where automotive enthusiasm transcends economic hardship.
Classic Car Show, Cleveland, OH captures the enduring passion for automotive heritage that defines communities across industrial America - it speaks to the democratic nature of car culture in post-industrial cities, while incorporating the motel and advertising signage that is a staple across Dylan’s The Beaten Path series, which celebrates many of the artist’s favourite roadside locations across America. Dylan’s choice to feature Cleveland, rather than the more obvious automotive centre of Detroit, speaks to his commitment to featuring more grassroots culture over larger corporate stories. Cleveland is a car culture hub that has long attracted collectors and enthusiasts from all economic backgrounds. The warm, saturated colours give this piece a sense of vintage nostalgia, as if looking through slightly rose-tinted glasses. It finds beauty in the dedication of communities that celebrate their automotive heritage through local car shows and gatherings.
American icon, Bob Dylan, has successfully established himself as a visual artist alongside his highly decorated musical career.
