Roy Lichtenstein helped create the pop art style in the 1960s with paintings that adopted the techniques and look of cartoons and comic books. His bold, graphic imagery focuses on the complex interactions of mass culture, fine art, and everyday life. This exhibition features 60 works, created between 1973 and 1997, that show how he developed an idea from initial sketches and finished drawings through collages to the finished work.
