Roy Lichtenstein,
Giclee Print

Roy Lichtenstein
b. 10-27-1923; NYC
d. 9-29-1997; NYC

Roy Lichtenstein was a leader in the ‘Pop Art’ movement that was influenced by popular advertising and the comic book style. Lichtenstein described Pop art as, “not ‘American’ painting but actually industrial painting”.

Roy Lichtenstein quote ~
• “I'm not really sure what social message my art carries, if any. And I don't really want it to carry one. I'm not interested in the subject matter to try to teach society anything, or to try to better our world in any way.”
• “We're not living in a school-of-Paris world, you know, and the things we really see in America are like this. It's McDonald's, it's not Le Corbusier.”
• “What interests me is to paint the kind of antisensitivity that impregnates modern civilization.”
