ROY LICHTENSTEIN "STEDELIJK MUSEUM AMSTERDAM" EXHIBITION POSTER, 1967
Roy Lichtenstein (1923-1997) was one of the most successful and influential artists of the 20th century, helping pioneer and define Pop Art in the 1960s.
Lichtenstein's signature style mined images from comic books and advertisements, elevating them beyond their humble or banal sources. Using hand-painted, single-color Ben-Day dots, Lichtenstein sought to emphasize the artificiality of his images by mimicking the look of commercial press production - to the point that his own brushstrokes nearly disappeared.
Pop Art raised important questions about artificiality, appropriation, parody, consumer culture, and the ongoing debate about what can be considered art. These themes are prominently featured throughout Lichtenstein's body of work.
"Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam" is a historic memento that announces Lichtenstein’s first solo exhibition in Europe, in 1967. This bold poster perfectly demonstrates the artist’s signature aesthetic and includes some of his most recognizable motifs in this distinct and dynamic abstract composition.
Today, Lichtenstein's work can be found in many major public collections across the United States and beyond, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, and Centre Pompidou (Paris), to name a few.
