Roy LichtensteinLes 10 illustrations réalisées par Lichtenstein pour « The New Fall of America » d'Allen Ginsberg mettent en valeur sa technique emblématique du Pop Art tout en démontrant sa polyvalence, son humour et sa pertinence culturelle. Ces estampes s'inspirent fortement de la publicité et de l'imagerie populaire de son époque, ainsi que des bandes dessinées (« comics »). Il décrit d'ailleurs lui-même son style comme étant « aussi artificiel que possible ». Avec des arrière-plans sereins mêlés à des visions inquiétantes d'une ville attaquée, ces illustrations sont des évocations dynamiques de l'Amérique moderne. Curieusement, une représentation de Ginsberg sous la forme d'un bouddha a été incluse dans le portfolio.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
