Roy Lichtenstein: Like New

0 upcoming performances in New York

On view at Whitney Exhibitions, *Roy Lichtenstein: Like New* revisits the artist’s Pop Art vocabulary through works that pull from comic strips, advertising, and other mass-media sources. The presentation tracks how Lichtenstein built an image from hard edges, limited color, and the look of mechanical printing, turning reproduction itself into a subject. In New York, where Pop Art first gained institutional footing in the 1960s, the show reads as a return to local art history. It also underlines a critical point: the paintings’ cool surfaces are a method, not a lack of feeling.
