Vincent Ricardel’s new series IT’S A SIGN explores the allure of mid-20th century American commercial signage — the bold, luminous beacons that dotted the postwar highways from the late 1950s through the 1980s. In an era of booming car culture, economic optimism, and the rise of roadside economy, signs for gas stations, motels, diners, and fast food chains transformed mundane advertising into vibrant public art.
