Year 5 1960’s Day – Lichtenstein Art!

To create an image using the style of Lichtenstein.

The children were challenged today to create Pop Art in the style of Roy Lichtenstein! They researched the artist in Art and Design at the beginning of the half term, and were excited to create their own version of one of his pieces. We chose the medium of plastic bubble wrap, as it was ideal to create the evenly spaced dots in the background. Take a look at our gallery below!

    1. Roy Lichtenstein used a technique of dot’s and Andy Warhol used photographic silkscreen printing to recreate his celebrities portraits.
    2. The tricky thing was to use the bubble wrap because when you press to hard then the paint will go all over the paper. I could produce my work differently by not using the bubble wrap and get a paint brush and do dot’s.
    3. I think our work reflected with Roy Lichtenstein because we used a range of dot’s and most of his artwork is based on dot’s.

    1)In a conversation about pop artists Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol, it’s hard to look away from the fact that while Lichtenstein de- and re-constructed popular or mass culture into emotive and iconic ‘high’ artworks literally one Ben-Day dot at a time, Warhol de- and re-constructed popular culture itself.
    2)The tricky part was when we had to put paint one the bubble wrap make another one differently by using a different technique.
    3)no because mine got smuged

    1. Because he used dots inspired by comics.
    2. Putting the bubble wrap on the paper was hard due to the fact we could move it, or it would get messed up.
    3. I don’t think mine did, because my dots were too big and there weren’t much of them.

    Lichestion did sculptures and Andy Warhol did not.
    It was tricky because sometimes you make a mistake like not do the whole circle. Maybe do a plan what i’m going to do first to myself.
    No I don’t think so because i did not to do it properly.

    1. Lichenstein’s work is different from Andy Warhol’s because Lichenstein uses dots.
    2. It was tricky when you have to press the bubble wrap on the paper so you don’t make it smudge. I would use more colors and a different picture.
    3. Mine did not reflect because mine wasn’t really dots.

    1. Roy Lichtenstein’s work was different from Andy Warhol’s work because Roy Lichtenstein uses dots for his work and Andy Warhol doesn’t Roy Lichtenstein also puts his work in some comic books.

    2. The thing that was tricky about it was the colouring because the bubble rap had small dots and it was hard to colour in.

    3. I think our work reflected the style of Roy Lichtenstein because we added dots like him with colours too.

    Lichtenstein used dots for comics but Warhol used different background.

    1. Roy Lichtenstein uses dots and Andy Warhol uses printing and different colours.
    2. The tricky part was when we had to get the dots to get on the paper.I would make another one differently by using a different technique.
    3.I don’t think my piece reflects Roy Lichtenstein’s work because the dots are too big and the colours blend together too much.

  11. Manvi R.

    1. It was different because Roy does dot pop art and Andy uses everyday things.
    2. The tricky part was when we had to press the bubble wrap with paint on to the paper. I would paint the dots on manually.
