Roy Lichtenstein - MSN Encarta (425 words)
Along with fellow American artist Andy Warhol, Lichtenstein was one of the central figures of the American pop art movement in the 1960s, which celebrated popular, commercial images.
In his ceramic and painted bronze sculptures, Lichtenstein used the same flattening, two-dimensional devices of his paintings to depict subjects ranging from explosions to goldfish bowls, cups with steam rising from them, and brushstrokes floating in the air.
Lichtenstein’s first solo show of comic-strip paintings, at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York City in 1962, was one of the first pop art exhibitions and created an art world sensation.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Special Exhibitions: Roy Lichtenstein on the Roof (803 words)
Also, with the reverse curve of her single supporting leg, counterbalanced by her off-center belly, Lichtenstein hints that Galatea is standing in a posture of contrapposto, a pose in which one part of the body is twisted in the opposite direction from the other part.
In Lichtenstein's Brushstroke Nude (1993) contrapposto is exaggerated to the point that the female figure—red and white on one side, blue and white on the other, mirror-image side—has the appearance of a fashion model twisting to show her outfit as she minces down the runway.
Endless Drip revives a characteristic of certain Lichtenstein sculptures of the late 1970s, in which the materialization of something evanescent, such as bronze steam rising from a sculptural coffee cup or bronze light beams cast by an overhead sculptural lamp, is conspicuous.
