Roy Lichtenstein artworks and editions

Roy Lichtenstein is considered a pioneer of pop art. He left abstract expressionism and turned to popular culture and the aesthetics of advertisements as one of the first. Roy Lichtenstein’s artworks and editions are characterized by the graphic presentation of structure through points adopted from newspaper printing. The grid-like presentation of dots became iconic for his oeuvre. His comic-portraits that are often combined with speech bubbles, exclamations, and onomatopoetic words are particularly popular.
