Book condition : as new. - Roy Lichtenstein's popular appeal - and his influence on pop culture, seen in everything from greeting cards to sitcoms - at times overshadows his importance to contemporary art. Yet, examined on its own terms, Lichtenstein's comics-inspired, deadpan artwork remains as truly unsettling to art-world orthodoxies today as when it first gained wide attention in the early 1960s. Lichtenstein (1923-1997), a central figure in Pop, consistently savaged the rules of painting—while remaining committed to the most traditional procedures and goals of the medium. (He once said, The things that I have apparently parodied I actually admire and I really don't know what the implication of that is.) This book offers the most comprehensive collection of writings on Lichtenstein's work to appear in thirty-five years, with early reviews, artist interviews and statements (some never before published), and recent reassessments ISBN 9780262512312.
