Big painting VI

Roy Lichtenstein's Big Painting VI (1965) is a striking example of Abstract art within his Brushstrokes series. Created with oil and Magna on large canvas, it measures 235 cm by 330 cm. The work emphasizes the physical act of painting, capturing dynamic brushstrokes and gestures. Lichtenstein’s focus on the actions made with a house-painter's brush bridges Pop art and abstract traditions. This piece achieved a record auction price for a living American artist in 1970, highlighting its significance in contemporary art. It is part of the collection at Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen.
