Summary |
Was Roy Lichtenstein a great artist, a thief, or both? This is the question addressed by the feature documentary. Along with Andy Warhol, Lichtenstein created the Pop Art movement of the 1960s. His comic-based paintings reside in the greatest art galleries and can fetch more than $150 million. But some view this renowned artist as a plagiarist. WHAAM! BLAM! focuses upon the last living comic artists whose work was 'appropriated' by Lichtenstein, and they are not happy. |
