Roy Lichtenstein (1923-1997)
Roy Lichtenstein was an influential American pop artist known for his distinctive use of bold colors, sharp lines, and Ben-Day dots, a technique that mimics the printing process of comic books. His work often parodied and celebrated pop culture, drawing inspiration from advertisements, comic strips, and mass media. Iconic pieces like "Whaam!" and "Drowning Girl" exemplify his style, characterized by a blend of irony and homage. Lichtenstein's art challenged the traditional boundaries of fine art, playing a pivotal role in the pop art movement of the 1960s.
