2/27/24 Lichtenstein

Brushstroke
Roy Lichtenstein
1996-97, painted aluminum, 32’ high
Lent by the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

Roy Lichtenstein burst on the art scene in the early 1960s with paintings inspired by comic books; today they look disarming and playful, but when new, they seemed shockingly irreverent. For three decades, he amusingly used an isolated brushstroke as the emblem of high art. Then Lichtenstein created his first Brushstrokesculptures, giving fluid “paint” a free-standing physical presence. The monumentality of this example evokes the heroism of the abstract expressionist painters, while its rapid calligraphic energy belies its static form.
