Online Talk | Donna de Salvo and Dorothy Lichtenstein: Roy Lichtenstein and Pop Art Before and After the Dots
A conversation from October 23, 2021
April 15, 2022, 6 pm - 7 pm
REGISTER
Tune into the lively conversation that took place six months ago in conjunction with the exhibition Roy Lichtenstein: History in the Making, 1948-1960, on view at the Museum, August 1–October 24, 2021.
Dorothy Lichtenstein, former director of the pioneering Paul Bianchini Gallery, New York, and who worked closely with many of the Pop artists, was joined in conversation with Donna De Salvo, Senior Adjunct Curator, Dia Art Foundation, and Curator of Hand-Painted Pop: American Art in Transition, 1955-1962, about this legendary artist and pivotal period in art in the United States.
One of the progenitors of Pop Art, Roy Lichtenstein’s work of the 1950s reveals much about the preoccupations of a younger generation of artists in the post-war U.S. as they attempted to work their way through and out of the shadows of Abstract Expressionism. Lichtenstein’s wide-ranging explorations of subject matter and form would lead to his groundbreaking Pop paintings, first shown in New York in 1962, ushering in a new attitude towards art from which there was no turning back.
