Description: San Francisco: Ernest F. De Soto Workshop, 1979. Detailed description of the edition of the lithograph. Signed in ink by Robert Gonzales .This describes each color, the proofs and the edition. DSW Edition no. 62 Billy Al Bengston (born 1934) is a flamboyant character who, beginning in the late 1950s, combined art with professional motorcycle racing and quickly became a key player in the Ferus Gallery circle. He had five solo shows at Ferus from 1958 to 1963, as well as a major exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1968. The motorcycle imagery in several early works associated Bengston with West Coast Pop, as did his use of techniques and materials drawn from custom-car and motorcycle culture, while the polished surfaces he achieved with spray lacquer also connected him to early conceptions of Finish Fetish. Provenance: Estate of Ernest F. De Soto. .
