Pop for the People: Roy Lichtenstein in L.A.

Friday, Oct 7, 201612 PM — Sunday, Mar 12, 20175 PMPDT

Skirball Cultural Center Los Angeles, CA, US Los Angeles, CA, US | Skirball Cultural Center

Pop for the People: Roy Lichtenstein in L.A. explores how the artist, a vanguard of the Pop Art movement buoyed by a renaissance in printmaking, made fine art accessible to the American public in ways that had not been achieved before. The exhibition features prints from Lichtenstein’s Bull Profile and Surrealist series, as well as the iconic Sunrise and Shipboard Girl. Additional works on display range from political subject matter to paper plates, clothing, and shopping bags. 

The exhibition also highlights Lichtenstein’s longtime collaboration with Stanley Grinstein and Sidney Felsen, cofounders of the prominent Los Angeles artists’ workshop Gemini G.E.L. Their groundbreaking printing house played a formative role in shaping the Los Angeles art scene and helped transform the city into a global center for printmaking and Pop Art. 

Finally, to make Lichtenstein’s creative work truly accessible to all visitors, the Skirball will transform one of its galleries into an interactive space where visitors can step into Lichtenstein’s reimagination of Vincent van Gogh’s Bedroom at Arles, brought to life in three-dimensional form.
