Omschrijving

A career-spanning look at the methods, influences, motivations, and continuing relevance of one of America's foremost Pop artists

Roy Lichtenstein's bold, instantly recognizable imagery and style helped redefine the possibilities of painting when it first gained widespread attention in the early 1960s, and it has been ceaselessly copied ever since. This ubiquity is part of his legacy, but it has also obscured the radical nature of his work. Spanning his entire career, from his formative years at Ohio State University in the 1940s to his death in 1997, this volume offers a fresh consideration of Lichtenstein's methods, influences, sources, and subjects, and includes reproductions of rarely seen early works, preparatory drawings, and source materials. It eschews traditional chronology in favor of unexpected pairings and groupings that reveal the artist's lifelong engagement with repetition, simulation, and the aesthetics of mass culture, while at the same time exploring how his images have subsequently been cited, distorted, and reimagined. This fascinating study highlights how Lichtenstein's practice of producing works that nod to mechanically printed materials but were actually painstakingly painted by hand created a tension between technological reproduction and artistic touch that presciently foreshadows today's visual landscape of cropped, altered, and repurposed images.
