Thinking of Him Roy Lichtenstein Lithograph Comic Strip Canvas Art * * * Title: "Thinking of Him" * * Artist: Roy Lichtenstein * * Medium: unsigned offset lithograph print transferred onto canvas: stretched on boardSize: 22" x 22"Condition: Excellent * Biography: * * Roy Lichtenstein was one of the first American * Pop artists to achieve widespread renown, and he became a lightning rod for criticism of the movement. His early work ranged widely in style and subject matter, and displayed considerable understanding of modernist painting: Lichtenstein would often * maintain that he was as interested in the abstract qualities of his images as he was in their subject matter. However, the mature Pop style he arrived at in 1961, which was inspired by comic strips, was greeted by accusations of banality, lack of originality, * and, later, even copying. His high-impact, iconic images have since become synonymous with Pop art, and his method of creating images, which blended aspects of mechanical reproduction and drawing by hand, has become central to critics' understanding of the * significance of the movement. * * Found from: http://www.theartstory.org/artist-lichtenstein-roy.htm * * *
