Roy Lichtenstein Surrealist: is a collection of prints and paintings created in 1978 by American Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. In this series, Lichtenstein pays homage to the Surrealist movement while filtering its dreamlike imagery through his precise and graphic Pop style. The works feature fragmented figures, everyday objects, and abstract forms arranged in unexpected and imaginative compositions. Using his signature Ben Day dots, sharp outlines, and bold color contrasts, Lichtenstein transforms the unconscious visual language of Surrealism into a refined study of form, irony, and perception. The Surrealist Series demonstrates his ability to reinterpret major art movements through a distinctly modern and playful lens.
