Roy Lichtenstein: Reflections Collection

Roy Lichtenstein: Reflections Collection



Guy Hepner Contemporary has recently added five new pieces to his collection of Lichtenstein's world acclaimed Reflections Collection. These pieces are rare and in edition of 68 and represent an era of pop art. Lichtenstein was fascinated by reflections and was determined to find a way to represent them in his artwork, using his signature comic book style. In order to represent reflections appropriately in his paintings, he used a mirror to reflect an image, which followed the traditional renaissance technique, to help him determine how to conceptualize the composition of his reflections. The recently acquired pieces in our collection include: Reflections on Brushstrokes, Reflections on Conversation, Reflections on Minerva, Reflections on Hair, and Reflections on Crash.

Roy Lichtenstein is an American painter sculptor and printmaker who reinvented pop art with his paintings based on comic book cartoons.
