An iconic figure of the 20th century New York scene, Alex Katz is an American painter and printmaker who developed his highly stylized visual vocabulary as a reaction to the ideas of Abstract Expressionism that were blossoming in the United States during the 1950s. Katzs brightly colored, large-scale figurative and landscape paintings are rendered in a flat style that oftentimes resembles the aesthetics of the everyday visual culture commonly found in advertising and cinema a feature that regularly linked Alex to the norms of Pop art despite the fact his work predates this movement by a relatively big margin. Throughout his career, Katz has managed to avoid any sort of deeper or psychological level within artworks, instead opting to simply portray what he loves the most in this world his family. That way, he was able to develop his simplistic style and allow the visuals to become the core of every artwork[1], offering a Pop-like and refreshing approach to art making.
