Roy Lichtenstein: 1997

0 upcoming performances in New York

At Whitney Exhibitions, **Roy Lichtenstein: 1997** situates the artist’s late-career work inside the New York institutions that helped define his reception. The presentation returns to Lichtenstein’s charged mix of comic-strip language, mechanical surfaces, and art-historical quotation, showing how Pop’s cool syntax could still carry friction. In a city where his imagery became part of the visual weather, the exhibition reads like a measured stocktake of influence and repetition. One clear takeaway is how deliberately “printed” his hand remained, even when the subject turns reflective.
