    LÉVY GORVY PRESENTS EXHIBITION FEATURING SIGMAR POLKE, ROY LICHTENSTEIN, AND GERALD LAING AND THEIR USE OF THE BEN-DAY DOT First exhibition to explore the greater transatlantic impact of the Ben-Day dot, focusing on the practice of Pop Art icons in Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing 6 March – 21 April 2018 Opening Reception: 5 March 2018, 6–8pm 22 Old Bond Street, London, W1S 4PY London, UK, January 2018— In the late 19th century, the American illustrator and publisher Benjamin Day developed a cost-effective printing technique that used dots in different densities to reproduce images on a mass scale. This process, named after its inventor, matured over the next century and was utilised to print newspapers, advertisements, and pulp comic books in the 1950s and 60s. Sigmar Polke (Germany, 1941–2010), Roy Lichtenstein (United States, 1923–1997), and Gerald Laing (United Kingdom, 1936–2011)— along with the rest of the world—devoured this imagery daily, and chose to reconfigure it in their works. Sigmar Polke, Freundinnen (Girlfriends), 1965/1966, Dispersion paint on canvas, 59 × 74 3⁄4 inches (150 × 190 cm). Froehlich Collection, Stuttgart, © Estate of Sigmar Polke / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn, Germany Opening 6 March at Lévy Gorvy’s London location, Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing is an exhibition devoted to the Ben-Day dot. Featuring exceptional works by the trio of legendary artists, this is the first exhibition to connect them on the basis of their manipulation of the dot, transforming imagery from the commercial sphere into fine art.
