Meaning & Analysis

Mirror #6, executed in 1972, captures an oval shape rendered in dark red, black and yellow. Jagged lines and dense areas of dots are strewn across its surface, evoking the reflective attributes of glass. These regularised patterns are also used to indicate the edges of the oval’s framework. Lichtenstein’s visual language both forms and obscures the central image of his canvas. The artist presents his mirror frontally, displaying the complete absence of reflections. Mirror #6 is as much a misrepresentation, as it is an illustration of a mirror.

Over the course of his career, Lichtenstein embarked on several other series dealing with vision and representation. His Water Liliesand Reflections, for instance, explore various perceptions of light and reflection. Meanwhile, Lichtenstein’s Entablatures delve further into object painting, reproducing enlarged architectural fragments as their main composition.

  • Roy Lichtenstein, born in New York, 1923, is a seminal figure in the Pop Art movement, renowned for his comic book and advertisement-inspired artworks. His transformative journey from classical painter to Pop Art pioneer began with his iconic piece, Look Mickey, marking the fusion of painting with pop culture. Lichtenstein’s works, including Whaam!, Drowning Girl, and Crying Girl, blend parody and satire, challenging the boundaries between popular culture and ‘high art’. With over 5,000 pieces to his name, Lichtenstein’s enduring influence resonates in contemporary art, his works celebrated in prestigious institutions worldwide.
