19862413New York: Harry N. Abrams 1986. FIRST EDITION. Original box. Very Good. DELUXE SIGNED LIMITED FIRST EDITION ONE OF ONLY 100 COPIES SIGNED BY LICHTENSTEIN complete with 24 offset lithographs printed in color on Coronado Opaque SST Cover paper. Although known primarily for large bold works Roy Lichtenstein "always worked from meticulous finished sketches. During a distinguished career of almost three decades he has seldom deviated from the practice of using these sketches to generate paintings prints and sculpture in ongoing and discrete series. <br /> <br /> "The twenty-four drawings in this sketchbook are 'all landscapes figures and houses but they are essentially landscapes.' They do in part recall certain of his landscape images of the mid-sixties. However now devoid of the familiar Lichtenstein dots each is composed exclusively of brushstrokes-a combination of free seemingly spontaneous marks evoking Abstract Expressionism played against what the artist refers to as 'cartoon' brushstrokes that continue to represent his concern for artifice. <br /> <br /> "The drawings in Landscape Sketches 1984-1985 inspired by a semiabstract landscape that appeared as an element in his recent Paintings series constitute his first attempt at creating 'plain landscapes out of all brushstrokes'-the frankly 'fake' or cartoon marks providing the link that allows us to associate these new works with those we recognize as archetypal." Constance W. Glenn Introduction.<br /> <br /> Note: In addition to the 100 signed and numbered copies there were an additional 10 artist's proofs issued. <br /> <br /> New York: Harry N. Abrams 1986.
