Roy Lichtenstein’s comic-strip-inspired paintings and irreverent humor have resonated with collectors and art lovers for over half a century. Museums and galleries vie with each other to exhibit his works, and on the market, he is one of the most sought-after names in contemporary art.

Famous for imbuing ordinary objects, from hot dogs to garbage cans, with monumental power, Lichtenstein defied traditional good taste and became part of the new avant-garde that redefined American art in the 1960s.

This volume features 100 of Lichtenstein’s most memorable works, selected by art historian Avis Berman, lavishly reproduced, from the iconic “Whaam!” and “Drowning Girl” to later reinterpretations of paintings by Picasso, Matisse, and Van Gogh, to public commissions such as the “Times Square Mural,” installed in New York City’s Times Square subway station.

Including stunning foldouts that reveal the breadth of Lichtenstein’s art in all its color and beauty, this book is a dream collection for Pop Art lovers everywhere.

Avis Berman, the author of this book, is a writer and art historian who has conducted over two hundred oral histories for the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation and written numerous articles and catalogue essays on Lichtenstein.
