Preparedness

This photo was taken in Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. Do you like it?

It was painted during a year when public opinion on the Vietnam War shifted dramatically, Lichtenstein's massive depiction of machinery and soldiers probes the conventions of selling the promises of the military-industrial complex, while quietly alluding to the naive optimism underlying a call to arms. Lichtenstein often focused on the way his traditional and mass-media sources resolve the dilemmas of representing three dimensions on a flat picture plane, incorporating their solutions into his own work with witty exaggeration. Preparedness plays the fragmented Cubist collage space of Leger against comic-strip modes of suggesting form and the surface quality of objects. Lichtenstein's inclusion of an airplane window in the third panel of the painting foreshadows his engagement with modes of conveying the illusion of reflective glass, which he went on to explore in a series of paintings of mirrors. http://www.guggenheimcollection.org.

Can you tell what it is yet? 5/5

Me gustan estas fotos con un cierto aire naif, sin ninguna pretension y gran simplicidad de lineas y colores.

Me gusta el juego de lineas horizontales y los dos hombres contemplando el cuadro desde distintos planos. Muy creativa Guillermo. Muy buen ojo !

Me gusta mucho, muchí³©mo, pero quitale por favor ese marco!!!

Muy buena.

Al pio me molest� el marco rojo, pero cuanto mas la contemplo veo que no sobra incluso me gusta, a su vez completa el homenaje a Lichtenstein.

 

No hace mucho hubo una exposici�n en el Reina Sofia de Madrid. Me encanta Roy Lichtenstein y es un lujo un cuadro suyo en una buena foto.

Como lograste que te dejaran meter la camara ? Tienes una acreditacion o algo ?
