Classic of the New. 40 works from 1961–1995. 34 paintings, five collages, and one sculpture. The exhibition is divided into three chapters. The first part is devoted to the early icons of his oeuvre, works with which the artist established his fundamental vocabulary of a new pictorial language. Lichtenstein's early work of the 1960s is juxtaposed with his late work, the interiors of the 1990s, on the third floor. The second floor is dedicated to the artist's work of the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a comprehensive publication with seminal texts by American and European authors on the main subjects of the exhibition.
