Reviews

"The subtlety and sophistication of the best Pop art have always been underestimated. With new, solid research and fresh critical insight, Michael Lobel brings to light, for the first time, the acute aesthetic intelligence at work in the paintings of Roy Lichtenstein. He has written an essential work for any understanding of American art of the 1960s." Thomas Crow, director, Getty Research Institute "A timely, engaging, and even provocative study of this important artist, one that will serve equally well as an introduction for novices and as an investigation for specialists." Ann Gibson, University of Delaware
