Meet the pioneer of Pop Art in this introduction to Roy Lichtenstein, whose high-impact cartoon-based images exploded onto the art scene at the end of the 1950s and transformed the notion of fine art forever. Appropriating the form and content of mass media, Lichtenstein revelled in American consumer culture while elevating it for critique at the same time.
