Roy Lichtenstein Art

American, 1923-1997

Roy Lichtenstein is one of the principal figures of the American Pop art movement, along with Andy Warhol, James Rosenquist, Claes Oldenburg and Robert Rauschenberg.

Drawing inspiration from comic strips, Lichtenstein appropriated techniques commercial printing in his paintings, introducing a vernacular sensibility to the visual landscape of contemporary art. He employed visual elements such as the halftone dots that comprise a printed image, and a comic-inspired use of primary colours gave his paintings their signature “Pop” palette.

Born and raised in New York City, Lichtenstein enjoyed Manhattan’s myriad cultural offerings and comic books in equal measure. He began painting seriously as a teenager, studying watercolour painting at the Parsons School of Design in the late 1930s, and later at the Art Students League, where he worked with American realist painter Reginald Marsh. He began his undergraduate education at Ohio State University in 1940, and after a three-year stint in the United States Army during World War II, he completed his bachelor’s degree and then his master’s in fine arts. The roots of Lichtenstein’s interest in the convergence of high art and popular culture are evident even in his early years in Cleveland, where in the late 1940s, he taught at Ohio State, designed window displays for a department store and painted his own pieces.

Working at the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement in the 1950s, Lichtenstein deliberately eschewed the sort of painting that was held in high esteem by the art world and chose instead to explore the visual world of print advertising and comics. This gesture of recontextualizing a lowbrow image by importing it into a fine-art context would become a trademark of Lichtenstein’s artistic style, as well as a vehicle for his critique of the concept of good taste. His 1963 painting Whaam! confronts the viewer with an impact scene from a 1962-era issue of DC Comics’ All American Men of War. Isolated from its larger context, this image combines the playful lettering and brightly coloured illustration of the original comic with a darker message about military conflict at the height of the Cold War. Crying Girl from the same year featured another of Lichtenstein’s motifs — a woman in distress, depicted with a mixture of drama and deadpan humour. His work gained a wider audience by creating a comic-inspired mural for the New York State Pavilion of the 1964 World''s Fair, he went on to be represented by legendary New York gallerist Leo Castelli for 30 years.

In the 1970s and ’80s, Lichtenstein experimented with abstraction and began exploring basic elements of painting, as in this 1989 work Brushstroke Contest. In addition to paintings in which the brushstroke itself became the central subject, in 1984 he created a large-scale sculpture called Brushstrokes in Flight for the Port Columbus International Airport in Ohio. Still Life with Windmill from 1974 and the triptych Cow Going Abstract from 1982 both demonstrate a break from his earlier works where the subjects were derived from existing imagery. Here, Lichtenstein paints subjects more in line with the norms of art history — a pastoral scene and a still life — but he has translated their compositions into his signature graphic style, in which visual elements of printed comics are still a defining feature.

Lichtenstein’s work is represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, Tate Modern, and many others. He was awarded National Medal of Arts in 1995, two years before he passed away.

Entablature IV
By Roy Lichtenstein
Located in Saint Augustine, FL
Artist: Roy Lichtenstein (American, 1923-1997) Title: "Entablature IV" Portfolio: Entablature Series *Signed by Lichtenstein in pencil lower right Year: 1976 Medium: Original Screenprint and Collaged mat pink Metallic Foil with Embossing on Rives BFK paper Limited edition: 14/30. (There were also 9 artist's proofs) Printer: Tyler Graphics Ltd., Bedford Village, NY Publisher: Tyler Graphics Ltd., Bedford Village, NY Reference: "The Prints of Roy Lichtenstein: A Catalogue Raisonne 1948-1997" - Corlett No. 141, page 144; PCN 7 (July-August 1976); "Tyler Graphics Catalogue Raisonne, 1974-1985" - Tyler No. 337:RL5, page 210 Framing: Framed in a contemporary white moulding with plexiglass, and matted with a custom hand-wrapped 8 ply linen mat Framed size: 39.5" x 55" Sheet size: 29.19" x 44.82" Image size: 20.19" x 38" Some light cosmetic wear to frame; presently no hanging wire. The artwork itself is in excellent condition Very rare Notes: Provenance: private company collection - Miami, FL, acquired directly from the publisher Tyler Graphics Ltd. in the 1970's. Numbered by Lichtenstein in pencil lower left. Comes from Lichtenstein's 1976 "Entablature Series" portfolio of 11 prints, (Corlett No. 138-148). Printed in 6 colours, in 7 runs, from 5 screens, and 1 embossing plate. Collaboration: Kenneth Tyler (project supervision, plate/screen preparation, proofing, collage, and embossing); Kim Halliday (screen preparation and processing, proofing, and edition printing); Betty Fiske (proofing and edition printing). Swan Engraving processed the magnesium plate. Tyler Graphics Ltd. chop mark/blind stamp lower right. Workshop number on verso in pencil lower left: "RL75-197". Comes with its original Tyler Graphics "Entablature Series" booklet. Between 1971 and 1976 Lichtenstein produced two series of "Entablature" paintings, using photographs of architectural ornament he had taken in New York as the starting point for his compositions (see Cowart [1981]). The first "Entablature" paintings (1971-72) were black and white. The second group used colour and were produced at roughly the same time the "Entablature" series of prints were in production at Tyler Graphics Ltd., 1974-76. The first discussions between Lichtenstein and Ken Tyler concerning the "Entablature" prints took place in May, 1974. As recorded in the Tyler catalogue raisonne, technical research for the project began in September 1974 and production was completed in April 1976. Lichtenstein produced one or more collages for each print in the series to serve as models for the plates and screens. Both the "Entablature" paintings and prints are intimately concerned with texture - the metallic paint and sand of the paintings, the foils and embossing/debossing techniques employed in the prints. The imagery itself - machined architectural ornament - takes technology as its subject. As Barbara Rose suggests, "That industrialism disrupted our notion of style as much as reproduction altered our conception of representation appears to be the subjects of Lichtenstein's "Entablatures". For each print in this series, the Tyler Graphics Ltd. catalogue raisonne gives exact method and press types, as well as the initials of the printers for each run. To complete certain phases of the project, Tyler employed the following companies: Drake Engineering, Danbury, CT (for machining of the metal die); Swan Engraving, Bridgeport, CT (for plate processing); Tallix Foundry, Beacon, NY (for bronze casting); and Tompkins Tooling, Gardena, CA (for machining of the metal die). The ten embossing plates for the series are now in the collection of the National Gallery, Canberra, Australia. Biography: American artist Roy Lichtenstein was born in New York City on October 27, 1923, and grew up on Manhattan's Upper West Side. In the 1960s, Lichtenstein became a leading figure of the new Pop Art movement. Inspired by advertisements and comic strips, Lichtenstein's bright, graphic works parodied American popular culture and the art world itself. He died in New York City on September 29, 1997. Lichtenstein was committed to his art until the end of his life, often spending at least 10 hours a day in his studio. His work was acquired by major museum collections around the world, and he received numerous honorary degrees and awards, including the National Medal of Arts in 1995. In 2013 the painting "Woman with Flowered Hat" set another record at $56.1 million as it was purchased by British jeweller Laurence Graff from American investor Ronald O. Perelman. This was topped in November of 2015 by the sale of "Nurse" for 95.4 million dollars at Christie's auction. Subsequently, that was topped with the private sale of his 1962 painting...

Red Apple by Roy Lichtenstein, Seven Apple Woodcuts Portfolio
By Roy Lichtenstein
Located in New York, NY
This Roy Lichtenstein woodcut from the Seven Apple Woodcuts portfolio is an electric take on the humble still life. Striated black brushstrokes sketch the outline of an apple, filled with graphic ribbons of colour that fall in folds towards the viewer. The black and grey background is suggested by a gestural stroke, which loops briefly behind the fruit to indicate its position in the scene, while the apple's shadow is cast in burgundy zigzags. Roy Lichtenstein first began painting brushstroke still lifes with apples in 1980. Petersburg Press approached Lichtenstein with the idea of making woodcuts in the traditional Japanese style -- on Japanese paper, with water based ink applied and printed by hand. The artist's brush stroke still life paintings and collages formed a basis for the Seven Apple Woodcuts portfolio, undertaken in 1982. While Lichtenstein focused on contemporary images in his art, he drew from art history for inspiration. Lichtenstein's studies for the portfolio were painted in simple, calligraphic strokes on clear mylar, mimicking the ink paintings and flattened perspective of traditional Japanese art.

However, according to a former executive of the publisher, once the original series of about 200 were sold, the rest were destroyed and never made available - which is why authenticated hand signed editions of this print, like the present work, are rarely seen. The Olympic Committee commissioned 15 nationally known artists, including to create unique designs to promote the event.

Shipboard Girl - Vintage Lithograph by Roy Lichtenstein - 1965
By Roy Lichtenstein
Located in Roma, IT
Shipboard Girl is an offset lithograph printed in colours on wove paper, 1965, signed in pencil, from the edition of unknown size. This beautiful print is hand-signed by Roy Lichtenstein (New York, 1923 - New York, 1997) on the lower right margin. Published by Castelli Gallery, New York. The artwork represents the typical blonde American beauty that we commonly found in mass-produced comic books and mass media. The artwork is named for the beautiful girl aboard a luxury liner ship. The limited colour scheme of bold primary colours (red, yellow and black) and thick black lines allude to the mechanical production of commercial comic book imagery aimed at mass audiences.

HOMAGE TO MAX ERNST
By Roy Lichtenstein
Located in Aventura, FL

Published by Les Éditions Georges Visat, Paris. C. 137. Numbered 35/100 (there were also 12 artist''s proofs). Image size: 21.125 x 15.575 inches. Paper size: 26 x 21.575 inches All reasonable offers will be considered. About the Artist: Roy Lichtenstein (American, 1923–1997) was an artist known for his paintings and prints which referenced commercial art and popular culture icons like Mickey Mouse. Composed using Ben-Day dots—the method used by newspapers and comic strips to denote gradients and texture—Lichtenstein’s work mimicked the mechanical technique with his own hand on a much larger scale. He was a leading figure in establishing the Pop Art movement, along with Claes Oldenburg, Andy Warhol, and Jasper Johns. “I take a cliché and try to organise its forms to make it monumental. The difference is often not great, but it is crucial,” he once said of his work. Born on October 27, 1923 in New York, NY, he studied painting under Reginald Marsh at the Art Students League of New York after graduating from high school. Drafted by the US Army during World War II, while stationed in France, he notably encountered the works of European masters and contemporary artists. After the war, he returned to America and completed his degree at Ohio State University, producing paintings in the vein of Abstract Expressionism. Lichtenstein began teaching art at Rutgers University during the late 1950s, meeting fellow staff members involved in the New York art scene, including the performance artist Allan Kaprow. By the early 1960s, he had begun showing with Leo Castelli gallery in New York, and made major breakthroughs with works such as Drowning Girl...
