American artist Allan D'Arcangelo attended the University of Buffalo. Among the first generation of Pop artists, D’Arcangelo is known for his paintings of American highways and road signs, often flattened to almost abstract images. D’Arcangelo exhibited extensively from the 1960s. He taught at the School of Visual Arts, Brooklyn, and at Brooklyn College. His work is held in the collections of MoMA, New York; the Metropolitan Museum, New York, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
