The Great Wave off Kanagawa x Lichtenstein
Excellent
L'œuvre en bref
In this pop art reworking in the style of Roy Lichtenstein, The Great Wave off Kanagawa is transformed into a dazzling graphic icon. The famous wave has been redesigned with clean solids, sharp black outlines and the famous dot grids characteristic of the world of comics. The bright yellow sky and uniformly coloured areas replace the subtleties of traditional Japanese gradation, giving the whole an almost advertising feel. The dramatic intensity of the original is replaced by a cold, stylised aesthetic, with visual irony in every detail. This version questions our view of masterpieces of the past through the prism of mass culture and industrial reproduction.Comparez avec l’original
