anyone know where i can watch an entire documentary about him? something? anything?

[padams2359]

I think his paintings are fantastic. They appear so vibrant and clean. It is modern Picasso. I would love to have the process of the Ben Day dots to replicate them as cleanly as he did in his works.

@nachio12345 not the BEST painter, but the best colourist, cineast and photographer, yes, he was a freaking genious

[bagoona]

Pollock, Rauschenberg, Close are prety good

Andy, etc, etc

[nachio12345]

What about Warhol?

He was American and one of the best painter ever

[pumpkinbrains101]

In what way was Lichtenstein european, apart from his name?

[MyRicardo1981]

Fucking genius Lichenstein, But of course he was not totally american, he was more European and it is still sad to know that Americans will nerver have a good painter. But still if we know about a good american artist is because the monopolio of American museums and its ideology in museums all over the world. Thats why the Gugenheim museum in Spain exist so Spanish painters can paint as Americans.
