The artwork, “Tokyo Brushstrokes (I and II),” created by Roy Lichtenstein in 1994, is a notable piece associated with the Pop Art movement and falls under the figurative genre. It is part of the “Brushstrokes” series by the acclaimed artist.
The artwork features two monumental sculptures that embody Lichtenstein’s characteristic style, reminiscent of comic strips and popular culture. Vibrant and expressive, the sculptures stand tall, showcasing thick, colorful brushstrokes that curve and intersect in dynamic compositions. The use of primary colors and the illusion of brushstrokes infuse the piece with energy and a sense of movement, making it a striking exemplar of Pop Art’s engagement with everyday visual culture.
