Pop Art Artist Roy Lichtenstein has an exhibition in LA and you must visit!
It’s safe to say Roy Lichtenstein is poppin’. The Skirball Museum is where Roy designed his real life canvas. This amazing exhibition is located in Los Angeles where more than 70 exclusive art pieces are displayed on colorful walls. The Los Angeles Timesquoted, “Pop for the People includes more than 70 of Lichtenstein’s works over four decades. Some of the pieces have rarely been exhibited, such as the artist’s 'Ten Dollar Bill' (1956), one of his first Pop art pieces. Rare photographs of the artist at work, paper plates he turned into art, even clothing items such as a 1970 bowling shirt he printed on will be on view. The museum will install a three-dimensional, life-sized re-creation of Lichtenstein’s 1992 'Bedroom at Arles', which itself is a re-imagining of Vincent Van Gogh’s series."
