Hand-signed Giclée Limited Edition Artwork by Bob Dylan. Bob Dylan has long been interested in evoking the sublime expanse of the North American landscape and celebrating the freed om to explore that the open road provided. As American author Bill Flanagan has noted, ‘Bridges and highways are a recurring theme in Dylan’s work … American myth is filled with travel, escape, moving on and starting over. Bridges, roads and railways represent freedom.’ In Switching Station, the tracks are visibly lit up with possibility, reaching towards the viewer as the setting sun casts an orange glow upon the cooling steel. Despite the intensity of Dylan’s colours, the overall impression is calm and reflective. The painting is the embodiment of one of the most commonly recurring themes in Dylan’s songs and art – the process of being on a journey, with multiple roads leading ahead. As prominent British art historian Andrew Graham Dixon suggests in his introduction to The Drawn Blank Series in 2008: ‘These apparitions of a much-travelled vehicle, battered by its passage through life but still dauntless, prompt the vague suspicion that the images might, in some way, be disguised self-portraits.’ This artwork is a hand-signed Giclée on archival 100% cotton, mould made Magnani 1404 350gsm QuaForte TM paper limited edition by Bob Dylan.
