Description

Roy Lichtenstein rose to fame in the early 1960s for his deadpan recreations of popular imagery, particularly paintings based on war and romance comics. As this book demonstrates, Lichtenstein's interest in quoting themes from both high and popular art continued throughout his career, resulting in a fascinating and varied body of work. As Lawrence Alloway's incisive text makes clear, Lichtenstein was not only one of the most important artists of the postwar era but also a perceptive and ironic commentator on contemporary society.
