Chicago, Illinois, the Largest City in the Midwest, to Los Angeles, California, the Home of Hollywood, on Othe West Coast WASHINGTON NORTH DAKOTA MINNESOTA MONTANA pened in 1926, Route 66 connected Chicago, Illinois, the largest city in the Midwest, to Los Angeles, California, the home of Hollywood, on Othe West Coast. At 2,448 miles (3,940 km.), Route 66 was the longest road in America for many years. It was so famous that there was a song and a TV show about it. The song WISCONSIN started: If you ever plan to travel west, Travel my way, take the highway that is best. (…) It goes from Chicago to L.A., More than two thousand miles all the way. Get your kicks on Route sixty-six. © Bob Troup MICHIGAN Route 66 Today, it is not possible to take Route 66 all the way from Chicago to Los Angeles.

  • HISTORIC ROUTE 66 SCHEDULED DEPARTURES for This SUMMER Route 66
    HISTORIC ROUTE 66 SCHEDULED DEPARTURES FOR this SUMMER Route 66 The route was established on November 11, 1926, although it was not signaled until next year. Originally ran from Chicago to Los Angeles through the states of Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona with a total distance of 2,448 miles (3,940 kilometers). In 1926 only 800 miles of the route were paved, the rest were dirt roads. It was not until 1937 that the road was paved in pink concrete from start to finish. The 66 was the main route of the emigrants who went to the West, especially during the 'Dust Bowl' (dust storms) in the 30s, and held the economy of the areas that crossed the road. At the outbreak of World War II, the 66 became fundamental to transport weapons, troops and war material across the country. As a result of this heavy traffic, the road suffered damage to a large degree, but remained as the only way to cross the country from east to west. The following were the golden years of Route 66 ... The 50s marked the birth of a new phenomenon, vacations and leisure trips. Many Americans, attracted by its route and its spectacular scenery, took to cross it. However, this sudden increase in traffic brought with it an increase in accidents. Route 66 was no longer safe, it was not adapted to the increasing speed of the car and began to be known as 'Death Alley' (death row), 'Bloody 66' (Bloody 66) or 'Two Lane Killer' ( Murderer of two lanes) That was the beginning of the end for Route 66.

  • Cadillac Ranch : Lorsque La « Contre-Sculpture » S’Invite Au Texas
    Cercles 36 (2019 CADILLAC RANCH : LORSQUE LA « CONTRE-SCULPTURE » S’INVITE AU TEXAS Bénédicte SISTO Université Clermont Auvergne Installée au milieu d’un champ dans la région des hautes plaines du Texas communément appelée le Texas Panhandle, à mi-chemin sur la mythique Route 66 reliant Chicago à Los Angeles, et à proximité de la ville d’Amarillo, se dresse une œuvre insolite et colorée : Cadillac Ranch. Réalisée en juin 1974 sur les terres du milliardaire texan Stanley Marsh par de jeunes architectes californiens nommés Chip Lord, Doug Michels et Hudson Marquez, tous trois inspirés par le souffle contestataire de la contre-culture des années soixante, cette sculpture géante balayée par le vent est constituée de dix Cadillac de même proportion inclinées à l’oblique et alignées d’est en ouest sur 42 mètres, le capot avant enterré à même le sol. Leur carrosserie, aujourd’hui partiellement éventrée, est recouverte d’une épaisse couche de graffitis multicolores. Tout autour, des dizaines de bombes aérosol, négligemment abandonnées par les visiteurs, jonchent le sol. L’œuvre, qui se distingue inévitablement dans le paysage et qui surprend par son originalité, est devenue au fil des décennies une attraction touristique majeure au Texas. Ainsi, chaque année, des centaines de milliers de personnes stationnent en bord de route avant de franchir librement un simple portail métallique symbolisant l’accès au lieu. Un peu plus loin, les visiteurs admirent la « sculpture publique » et, comme le veut la tradition, marquent de leurs bombes de peinture aux couleurs éclatantes la Cadillac qui a remporté leur préférence. De toute évidence, l’œuvre procure une émotion singulière auprès du public, émotion qui n’a jamais cessé de surprendre les artistes à l’origine du projet, comme l’explique Michels en 1994 : « Cadillac Ranch is timeless, and has become more powerful with time.

Kieda, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT The San Francisco art and architecture collective Ant Farm built Cadillac Ranch in 1974 outside of Amarillo, Texas, to showcase “the rise and fall of the Cadillac tailfin.” The ten vintage Cadillacs buried nose‐first in a row along the old Route 66, with their tailfins jutting up obliquely, is often read as a monument to the golden era of the American automobile. Yet despite (and because of) its continued popularity, the work has rarely been taken seriously as art. This thesis proposes a revaluation of Ant Farm’s iconic project, and represents an attempt to position Cadillac Ranch as an important sculptural installation that speaks to many of the key concerns of the American avant‐garde of the 1960s and 1970s.
