Roy Lichtenstein Online Gallery Launched

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep. 13, 2012 - One of the biggest fans of the work of Roy Lichtenstein has decided to launch a detailed website which covers his career in detail, and even includes a gallery of the artist’s most significant paintings. Few members of the Pop Art movement have managed to equal the impact of this painter who is well known for his cartoon-like approach, typified by the likes of Whaam and other notable paintings.

Whaam itself featured a plane firing bombs across the wide canvas and this was adapted from an earlier cartoon, which drew some criticism at that time for a supposed lack of imagination. But, in truth, the reality was quite the opposite as Lichtenstein gave us new ideas on how art can be created and how it can look, many of which we take for granted today. You will indeed see examples of other artist's work all over the world which bears some resemblance to Lichtenstein, and his influence spreads across different regions and also periods of art which have followed on since his own work actually came about in the 20th century.

The new website aims to draw the best qualities of printed publications and online articles together in a comprehensive guide to this internationally-respected artist. There will also later be opportunities in the website to leave feedback and encourage discussion on topics related to the painter and innovator. This certainly is an exciting website with which to get involved and there will also be more and more added over time as the site develops and new requests are met.

Few online galleries have been as carefully chosen as this one to offer viewers a really varied look into different approaches taken by the artist across the full span of his career. Most simply offer prints or poster reproductions without taking the time to really attempt to educate others about the full breadth of this artist’s skills.

We urge you to take a look at http://lichtensteinpaintings.com/ and http://lichtensteinprints.org/ whenever you next get the chance as the in depth information is comprehensive and intriguing.
