Description
Laurie Raskin’s Greetings From The Coast 2 is a vibrant homage to the roadside visual culture of mid-century Southern California. Measuring 48 inches high x 39.5 inches wide, the mixed-media artwork assembles an exuberant collection of vintage-inspired motel, restaurant, beach, and commercial signs associated with San Diego and the Pacific Coast. Neon-style lettering and retro typography overlap across broad fields of turquoise, coral, yellow, orange, and gray, transforming familiar signage into a dynamic graphic composition. References to Solana Beach, Shell Beach, motels, diners, and coastal destinations evoke the romance of the postwar California road trip. With its layered imagery and emphasis on commercial design, the work shares Pop Art’s fascination with everyday visual culture while preserving the distinctive character of mid-century roadside Americana. Raskin turns these nostalgic signs into a colorful portrait of coastal travel, architecture, and leisure.
