In life, Roy Lichtenstein was one of the biggest names in pop art. Now, more than a decade after his death, his paintings still get double takes and are worth seven figures. Erin Moriarty reports.

His drawings are so clear , colourful and recognizable ! Nothing sad about them, just his own way to consider our world and depict it with an amazing talent.

I was brought here by a KZfaq channel doing art in his style and explaining who he was and that he wasn't well received so naturally I had to see for myself.... I'm really surprised with how good some of that is that he got the response he did my guess jealousy
@f_d74972 жыл бұрын
Same. But I read some of the comments on there and people were saying he wasn’t well received because he basically stole ideas and pieces from other artists putting his own spin on them. He got rich while the artists he stole from didn’t. He didn’t get rich on his own original pieces so it would be reasonable why so many people didn’t take a liken to him.

blah to his work, devoid of creativity.. simple, easy, unimaginative... people bought the pet rock in the millions in the 70's. it was a rock... People think Taylor Swift is a musical genius and she is a one-trick pony, cranking out variations of the same hollow, shallow garbage, but tied up in a pretty package. The Emperor's New Clothes... People pay millions of dollars for his art, not because it is worth it, but because they are TOLD it is worth it... People do, say and believe what they are told. Comic book panels..... I do think, though, that even Roy knew his work wasn't that great, and quite well knew the public would buy whatever they were told to "buy", as evidenced by his work, "Masterpiece." If an artist can paint crap and the public gobbles it up, then surely they deserve what they get... I think he knew that... No doubt he had talent, but to do so little with it...

I feel like there's a parallel to draw here between Pollock/Lichtenstein and the sarcastic, sometimes bitter comedy shows that are the norm right now vs shows like Call Me Kat, that find joy in plain everyday life instead of cursing it. (If it works for you, feel free to use that for your papers, media students. ;-) )

@anthonybrink2876 жыл бұрын
GEORGIOS798 because he copied almost all his art directly from 60s and 70s comic books. It’s called art plagiarism. This man had no ideas of his own. He copied everything he did. He would trace the art from a comic, put it on a projector that projected it onto the canvas and then he painted it. Disgusting. And to think his paintings sell for millions of dollars.
@goldensquishy13516 жыл бұрын
he didn't plagiarize everything he did! He may have been inspired by some existing art, but he didn't copy someone else and then just take full credit!
@anthonybrink2876 жыл бұрын
Golden Squishy actually , he did exactly that. He never gave any credit to the original artists he stole from except in passing when questioned and pressured about it. “ inspired” yeah right, he copied them almost exactly, changing hair color or cropping parts out. His most famous pieces are near exact copies, made larger. It’s a joke.
@billiam57266 жыл бұрын
I don't think its a joke, he and everyone who likes his work are well aware that he stole everything he did. But in art its not about who did it first its about who made it the biggest (Also he was actually capable of drawing original things)

As Joe Martinez says in this comment thread, he did rob freely from comic book artists who designed and drew many of the original images in paintings which Lichtenstein signed as his own. This video is stamped '12 years ago' and since then the issue of Lichtenstein and copying and stealing has emerged. He used to be one of my favourites. Until I saw how closely he plagiarized his images from the comic book originals. Maybe some would whine that that's okay because of the sorts of reasons that all those artists give for their various acts of copying, lifting, tracing, re- using etc imagery that they don't have the ability to generate themselves but for me, as an artist, I'm just so tired of the endless stream of regurgitated stuff that gets called art. Maybe Lichtenstein is a great artist. It's pointed out in this video that he was untroubled, untormented, and possibly it's because he wasn't the real deal after all.
