Original Signed Peter Max Paintings & Lithographs

Peter max was born in 1937 in Berlin, Germany. His Family moved a number of times before finally settling down in the United States in 1953. Peter Max studied Fine Arts in New York at the Art Students League, Pratt Institute, and the School of Visual Arts. Apparently Max adopted the name "Max" from fellow students and then aspiring artist, Max Oppenheimin. After completing his studies, Peter Max opened a design studio and gained international success as a designer for books, posters and product advertisements. In an effort to spend more time on his own personal artistic career, Peter Max closed his studio in 1964. It was following this transition that he began to produce his own signature silk-screens and lithographs, characterized by his use of bright colors and painterly mark making.

Peter Max's work, which he called "up art," was a part of the psychedelic movement in graphic design during the early 1960's. His work was extraordinarily influential and highly imitated in advertising design throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Pictured above an original Peter Max acrylic painting and lithograph on paper. This wonderful piece, titled God Bless America II 2001, measures 24" x 18" unframed. Max created a number of works like God Bless America II 2001, picturing the Statue of Liberty, an iconic symbol of the American Dream. Employing the use of both lithography and painting these works consistently stand out for there powerful compositions and bold use of color and inspiring subject matter.

Original Hand Signed Roy Lichtenstein Lithographs


Next to Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein is considered to be one of the greatest artists of the Pop Art movement.

Aside from producing paintings and sculptures, Roy Lichtenstein also created a great number of prints. Lichtenstein often employed the use of multiple mediums such as lithography, screenprinting and etching for the creation of a single print.

His work is often characterized as ironic, humorous and witty. In response to this commonly held opinion, he once stated "I'd rather use the word dealing with than parody. I am sure there are certain aspects of irony, but I get really involved in making the paintings when I am working on them, and I think just to make parodies or to be ironic about something in the past is much too much of a joke for that to carry your work as a work of art."

Pictured above is Roy Lichtenstein's original hand signed Offset Lithograph, Crak. An Offset Lithograph is described as an inked image that has been transferred or "offset" from a plate to a rubber blanket, and then later to the printing surface. This work is hand signed in the bottom right hand corner, and measures 18" x 27" unframed. A total edition of 300 lithographs were published by the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York, between 1963-1964. Please contact our gallery for more information regarding this work, and feel free to have a look through our gallery website to view more original lithographs and linocuts by Roy Lichtenstein.
