Interiors Series: Blue Floor, 1990
This one by Roy Lichtenstein uses the printing media of lithograph, woodcut, and screenprint. This is huge and comes in at 51 1/4 inches by 77 1/2 inches. Thus, it`s hard to get the complete effect from this rendering. Oh, yesterday`s article was in Newsweek, not Time. It`s 'Special Report the Story of Pop'. You must read it, because it was written in 1966, and has the spontaneity and authenticity of that time. It hasn`t been retread through constant redefining of Pop art, I mean. Blue floor was taken from an industrial catalog and then processed into a redefined piece of Pop. This is the perfect suburban life of the 1960s!
