Gallery label text 2012:
CRAK! was made around the time Roy Lichtenstein first gained attention for his appropriation and elevation of the visual vocabulary of comic strips. The now-iconic Ben-Day dots, thick outlines, speech balloons, and tight cropping were quite new and shocking at the time. Both Lichtenstein and Warhol were elemental in the Pop Art movement for their conscious rejection of highbrow subjects and their use of commercial printing techniques.

Gallery label text 2013:
In the 1890s, Impressionist artist Claude Monet completed a series of paintings of haystacks. Monet built up his paint surfaces with rich, textured brushstrokes to capture the unique forms in different times of day and in different weather. Almost seventy-five years later, Roy Lichtenstein translated Monet’s haystacks into Pop art with his characteristic hard-edged dot pattern printed with a commercial silkscreen technique.
As with Impressionist paintings, the viewer needs to step back from the Lichtenstein for the image to become fully coherent.

This Pop Art poster was created to advertise the fourth New York film festival at Lincoln Center in 1966. With primary colors and his signature Ben Day dots (used in commercial printing to produce halftones), Lichtenstein integrated bold elements to create an attention-getting image that would be visible on city streets. He was paid to design the poster by the Lincoln Center Poster Project, which was begun by New York philanthropist Vera List. In an interview in 1973, Mrs. List described her reason for creating the project:
"I’ve always believed that one’s environment is what stimulates people. It’s what stimulated me as a child…you’d go to Paris and see all the exciting posters around there which were very colorful and stimulating…but you walk around New York, and you see the three-sheeter. So that gave birth to the idea of allocating a certain sum for posters. The idea was to commission the fine artist, the creative artist of the time…to bring to the general public –they walk down the street, they see an image, something would attract them, and something would happen…I always felt that if people’s sensibilities were awakened, they would seek to make the whole city a more amenable place in which to live. So that’s how that started."

Gallery label text 2013:
“When we think of a still life, we think of paintings that have a certain atmosphere or ambience. My still life paintings have none of those qualities, they just have pictures of certain things that are in a still life, like lemons and grapefruits and so forth. I’m never drawing the object itself; I’m only drawing a depiction of the object – a kind of crystallized symbol of it. It's not meant to have the usual still life meaning.”
- Roy Lichtenstein
