Roy Lichtenstein’s widow, Dorothy Lichtenstein, was President and co-founder of the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation. Her goal was to facilitate public access to the work of her husband and of other modern and contemporary artists.
She also wanted to divest The Foundation of its holdings by 2026, and to that end more than 1,000 works were donated to museums in the U.S. and around the world. She also donated the couple’s studio building in Manhattan to the Whitney to use for its Independent Study Program.
Dorothy Lichtenstein died in July 2024, and still, her goal of giving the public access to Roy Lichtenstein’s art was realized: The Foundation created a digital catalogue raisonné of Lichtenstein’s work, comprised of more than 5,000 paintings, prints, collages, drawings, sculptures and notebooks, a number of which were previously undocumented.
The Roy Lichtenstein Catalogue Raisonné was given an Apollo Award 2024 for Digital Innovation by the Apollo International Art Magazine.
A Centennial Exhibition Roy Lichtenstein’s works is in the planning stage at the Whitney for Fall 2026.
There is joy and a sense of serenity in the paintings of Orville Bulman (1904-1978) that reflects the deep affection he had for the subjects he painted.
Becoming an artist was Bulman’s dream, but his sense of duty to his family was strong and he remained in his home in Grand Rapids, Michigan to help his father run the family business before going off on his own to devote himself to his art.
Wintering in Palm Beach allowed him to begin his career in earnest, and even a serious neck injury didn’t discourage him. Bulman found his muse in the people, architecture and floral and fauna of Haiti.
Bulman was not only generous with colors on canvas, but he also established a foundation to help other artists.
