  • The Frick Pittsburgh Presents Cast in Chrome: the Art of Hood Ornaments
    Contact: Kaitlyn Clem For Immediate Release Marketing and Communications Associate 412-342-4025 [email protected] THE FRICK PITTSBURGH PRESENTS CAST IN CHROME: THE ART OF HOOD ORNAMENTS New exhibition on view at the Car and Carriage Museum April 24 - October 31, 2021 PITTSBURGH, PA, April 15, 2021 – This spring, The Frick Pittsburgh celebrates some of the automobile industry’s most instantly recognizable and intricately crafted artistic motifs with the opening of Cast in Chrome: The Art of Hood Ornaments at the Car and Carriage Museum on Saturday, April 24. This special exhibition explores the evolution of these miniature works of art, from their inception in the 1910s as a means of monitoring radiator temperature to their transformation into expressions of status and personal expression throughout the early 20th century. Cast in Chrome, which features more than 30 hood ornaments, and three cars on loan, in addition to objects from the Frick’s permanent collection, will be organized thematically with sections devoted to female figures, animals, mythology, art-deco-inspired motifs, and the great space race─ when airplanes and rockets made their way onto hoods. Each theme will be accompanied by a featured automobile marque from the 1920s through 1940s, a selection of illustrative hood ornaments, and clothing from the period. Visitors can expect to see some of the most iconic hood ornament emblems including Rolls- Royce’s famous Spirit of Ecstasy, represented by the Frick’s 1923 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Salamanca town car, and Lincoln’s greyhound ornament on Helen Clay Frick’s 1931 Lincoln Model K Dual Cowl Phaeton.

  • Pontiac Hood Ornaments: Chief of the Sixes
    so prominently in the news since Pontiac’s ornaments are among the most striking from the fl amboyant era of the American automobile. In the early 1930s they were shaped in the form of a Native American head adorned with feathered headdress, but by the 1950s they had morphed into the memorable confi guration of jet plane with the head of Chief Pontiac at the helm. These beautiful and iconic designs caught the public imagination then and now, but, when contextualized to their own day, their signifi cance expands. They can be understood as ciphers of industrial strength in the face of the complex and troubled situation for the Native American in postwar America. The fl ying mascot’s sleek body trailing behind the bold, simplifi ed features of Chief Pontiac is replete with glistening surface and tapering forms. Its swept wings were modeled after the jet aircraft of the period and in that regard symbolized the military might embodied in the Cold War fi ghters and bomber planes. In the words of one designer, “We liked jet airplanes, we liked fl ashiness, we liked power.”1 At work was a language of corporate power and machismo linked as much to planes as to tropes of the Native American male body.2 As the Indian body converts into its technological other, Pontiac’s ornament appropriates the raw power of the myth of the savage body so associated with the Indian warrior, and transforms it into a streamlined extension of the car’s force as moving energy. Indeed, the cultural stereotype of the Pontiac Hood Ornaments Chief of the Sixes By Mona Hadler General Motors’ recent announcement of the impending closing of its Pontiac division made a stir across America where the car had been a staple for generations.
