Roy Lichtenstein's ABC - Hardcover

One of the founders of pop art, Roy Lichtenstein is best known for largescale renditions of comic-strip art, and for fusing comicbook techniques with high art in his appropriations of such artists as Picasso and Mondrian. His distinctive look filled with brilliant colour, dots and stripes is one of the most identifiable in all contemporary art. Here Lichtensteins unique style celebrates the ABC, with results that are surprising, delightful and amusing. D is for a comically vicious growling Dog. H is a Horse that races by in dizzying blaze of dots and stripes. And A is for ART, Lichtensteins first pop comic masterpiece, Look Mickey, now in the collection of the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC.

Bob Adelman, photojournalist and longtime friend of Lichtenstein's, collaborated with him on this book as well as on The Art of Roy Lichtenstein and Brad `61. Sam N. Antupit was both president of Common Place Publishing and and proprietor of Cycling Frog Press. He designed for all the foremost US visual arts publications including Harper's Bazaar, Show Magazine, Vogue, Mademoiselle, Glamour, House & Garden and Esquire.
