  • Roy Lichtenstein is renowned for his works based on comic strips and advertising imagery, coloured with his signature hand-painted Benday dots.
    This film brings together archival footage of Lichtenstein at home and at work in his studio, as well as interviews with his wife Dorothy and friend Frederic Tuten to create an intimate portrait of the artist.
    A retrospective exhibition of Lichtenstein’s work, including 124 of the artist’s most definitive works was shown at Tate Modern in 2013.

    He seems like a really modest and humble guy who loved doing what he did.

    To date in this art class at FIU, Roy Lichtenstein is one of my favorite and love artist. He paints like I draw, the major exception is that he is gets paid millions for his work. I appreciate his style as well as his dedication to his work and his humble character.

    Hello and thanks for watching. A lot of that archive footage came from films made by 2 different companies (both listed in the credits -- Michael Blackwood and Checkerboard Film Foundation). You can buy their DVDs of the original films on their websites or in the Tate shop.

    Lichenstein, Warhol and the Pop Art movement has been of my greatest inspirations ever since I heard about them. It was my introduction to the art world, when I was totally uninterested in visual arts and I still love it.

    I love his work. Along with Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt, Grant Wood, Thomas Hart Benton, Georgia O'Keeffe, Margaret Keane, Norman Rockwell and Tamara De Lempicka.. I guess all the purists would say he couldn't paint like Leonardo Di Vinci, but his art has personality and pop to it. I specifically love his comic art. With the crying ladies and couples and the word bubbles.. They would have been cooler if he came up with original characters and sayings though.. But in the end its what I like as art and what you like too..

      He used a projector to project people’s comic art on to a canvas and traced around the lines, notice how when he paints the pencil lines are already there? Even the words are traced, anyone can trace and fill in the spaces with flat colour paint, did you see his freehand work before he did pop art it was awful, fair enough I will give him credit for a unique technique but if you can’t trace around your own creative work and have to do it to other people’s works then you are an amateur at best, he didn’t even credit the people who’s art he traced around.
