Industry and the Arts (I) 1969

Roy Lichtenstein's *Industry and the Arts (I)* from 1969 is a vibrant Pop Art print that juxtaposes the world of industry and the arts. The left side of the composition features a factory setting, while the right depicts a musical scene. Lichtenstein's signature Ben-Day dots are employed throughout, adding a bold graphic quality to the piece and referencing the commercial printing techniques of the time. The artist's interest in popular culture and mass media is evident in his use of bold colors and simple, iconic forms, creating a visual dialogue between the two contrasting themes.
