Roy Lichtenstein was an American pop artist best known for his boldly-colored parodies of comic strips and advertisements. In the 1960s, Lichtenstein became a leading figure of the new Pop Art movement. Inspired by advertisements and comic strips, Lichtenstein's bright, graphic works parodied American popular culture and the art world itself.
" Sweet Dreams" by Roy Lichtenstein is a beautiful artwork depicting a punching fist. With a one-two punch, Sweet Dreams, confronts the viewer with the very essence of the Pop movement: mass culture directly in front of you – bold, vibrant, and dynamic. Bursting with stylized text and Ben Day dots, Lichtenstein utilizes the pervasiveness of comic books to instantly make a connection with the viewer. The dual nature of a normally affectionate phrase, “Sweet Dreams, Baby!” highlights the artist’s wit and sends his “goodbyes” to the man who was just knocked out.
