Robert Cottingham, American (b. 1935), "Art" neon sign, color offset lithograph print, 22 1/4" x 22 14"
Est: $300 - $400
Robert Cottingham American, (b. 1935) "Art" neon sign color offset lithograph print Pencil signed lower right. Likely from an edition of 1000. Biography from the Archives of askART: Robert Cottingham lives and works on an eighteenth century New England farm, but the subject matter he paints is strictly urban. Tattoo parlors, seamy bar fronts, five-and-dime stores, trashy movie marquees, or the advertising on a pancake house are all the urban symbols he utilizes to construct his complex paintings. He ferrets out the architectural details, symbols, and letter fragments of facades from the 1940s and '50s, giving us a glimpse of a true American folk art; garish, trite, yet somehow endearing. Cottingham finds more than just the materials of a sign fascinating. "Commercial signs are amazing" he says. "Here are these elaborate, monumental structures designed solely to tell you that this is where you can buy a hamburger or a pack of cigarettes. You can see these signs as hilarious or pathetic. All that effort, all the pomposity just to sell you something and yet they are an heroic attempt by someone to leave his mark." Cottingham does not paint signs just to document them. He feels that job is best left to a photographer. "As an artist, I use the configurations of a sign as the basis for constructing a painting. They are my excuse to make a painting. The end result for me is a composite of line, form, and color that also happens to depict a sign. If the final work can be read on both levels as a formal painting, taut and succinct, and at the same time as a depiction of a sign, I feel the work approaches success.." Robert Cottingham deals with the city, and his subjects are the signs and storefronts themselves. His works are a celebration of signs as elements of persuasion, which often border on satire, or hyperbole, and have a bravado and charm that link the urban scene and man directly. His art is concerned with the vitality and variety of contemporary American life without reference to the nostalgia of a bygone era. Cottingham is generally referred to as a "photorealist." The term, in use for about thirty years, refers to work that has a clarity and "truth-to-the-eye" that is associated with photography. It is misleading to think that photorealism is an attempt to replicate photography in paint. Nor is it accurate to assume that the success of a work relies on a technique that is dependent upon the projection of a photograph or transparency onto canvas or paper. The role of photography and the process that leads to the final, large painting was detailed by the artist in a statement written in 1982. He begins by filming streets in various cities, using both 35 mm and 2 1/4 inch transparency film. After selecting an image that interests him, the next step is a series of pencil drawings of the entire vista of the street scene. In these works he separates "the essential from the extraneous" and analyses compositional possibilities and the relationships of light and dark values In the third step, which may overlap the first, Cottingham makes ink, acrylic, watercolor and gouache drawings. In the ink drawings he investigates the abstract patterns within the composition. In this process, Cottingham frequently abandons the literal rendering of texture, creating through shading and loose brushstroke works with a lyrical quality distinct from the precision of the painting. If he is pleased with the results of these studies, and the work appears suitable for an increase in scale, Cottingham lays out a grid on a wall to visualize its effectiveness. This is an important step since the scale involves judgments in the success of enlarging various images, and on the relationship of the final painting's size to human scale. With respect to content, Cottingham strives to create work that has an inherent drama and humor, a straightforward message about the city and commerce, and a strong sense of American language. Cottingham's intent is to involve the viewer directly. In earlier paintings from the 1970s, he used a square format for the final painting and the related works. The perspective was often that of the viewer looking up as from a sidewalk. Because the signs in the paintings were elevated for more effective distance viewing, the viewer became a detached, casual observer. For Cottingham signs are communication. They are objects rich in language, ideas and ingenuity. In the context of storefronts, the images become metaphors for the activities and choices in our daily lives. Through his works we see a reflection of ourselves and the world we have built around us.

Est: $500 - $600
Robert Cottingham (New York, b. 1935) color offset lithograph depicting a section of a neon sign that spells the word "art," 1973. From the edition of 1000. Signed in pencil, lower right. Sight: 21 1/2" H x 21 1/2" W. Frame: 29 5/8" H x 30" W. Biography: "Robert Cottingham studied advertising and graphic design at Pratt Institute in New York from 1959 to 1963. Soon after graduating, he was employed as an art director at New York and Los Angeles advertising agencies, where he was involved with all aspects of design and production. Eager to advance his career as an artist, Cottingham eventually began to paint every day after work. Even his earliest paintings were of the same style, character, and subject matter for which he is known: precisely rendered images of neon signs, architectural details, storefronts, and other elements of the American urban landscape. His first solo exhibition took place at the Molly Barnes Gallery in Los Angeles in 1968. He moved to London in 1972 and returned to the United States in 1976 after running out of photographs--the primary visual material he uses in his paintings. He considered his urban subjects purely American and would not consider a visual substitute. (Source: Smithsonian American Art Museum)
