Made in 1961, this artwork is currently held at MoMA in New York City. This oversimplified work of art represents Pop Art as well as Roy Lichtenstein because of the artist's exaggerated use of the Ben-Day dots to represent themes of nostalgia and commercialism (a heavily used theme in theme in the Pop Art time period). Inspired by an advertisement, Lichtenstein grabs influences from other artists such as Manet and Picasso, to show how the body of the average woman has changed over time.

Roy Lichtenstein. Whaam!. 1963. Magna on Canvas. 172.7cm x 421.6cm. Tate Gallery, London, England, United Kingdom. This painting is very classic Lichtenstein, who was influenced heavily by comics.

The subject matter, the crashing plane, may have to do with Lichtenstein's service in the army during World War 2.

Roy Lichtenstein dabbles in the world of Expressionism here with his series of sculptures and paintings. This head is exaggerated with its protruding lips and its huge eyebrows. The use of the colors are meant to intensify the face showing emptiness. Lichtenstein purposefully went away from his normal Ben-Day dots and went with stripes to accentuate the dark lines.

He was known for being heavily influenced by cartoons and ads, and this influence can be seen in this piece. The whole piece has straight even lines and is painted in primary colors, like comics.
