Summary:	This publication exhaustively illustrates the sculptures Lichtenstein created between 1968 and 1997, the year of his death. From his first ceramic works down to large-scale public ones, the volume seeks to trace the artistic process leading from draughts and drawings to collages, maquettes, metal sculptures and large-scale urban installations. It also seeks to explore Lichtenstein's work on industrial manufacturing methods and techniques, by providing important information about the workshops the artist collaborated with during his career. The book is intended to offer a comprehensive overview of the artist's experimental use of methods of industrial production, along with a selection of interviews and texts on his two-dimensional sculptures.

Description
Summary:	An exceptional selection of Lichtenstein's sculptures from 1968 to the end of the artist's life, from early ceramic sculptures to large-scale public works. The planned exhibition at the Fondazione Vedova in Venice (Biennale Arte 2013) will encompass Roy Lichtenstein's sculptural production throughout his career, from the early 1960s through to the late 1990s, presenting his influential sculptural oeuvre in ceramic, bronze, wood, porcelain, steel and aluminium, as well as drawings, collages, and maquettes that describe the artist's working processes. The catalogue, a major chronology of Lichtenstein's sculptures, not only documents is production practice - from sketches and drawings to collages, maquettes, metal sculptures and large-scale interventions in urban contexts, but approaches Lichtenstein's work from the perspective of fabrication methods and industrial techniques.
