Screenprint in colors on Arches paper - Signed and numbered in pencil - Series: Alex and Ada, the 1960's to the 1980's - Published by Gaultney-Klineman Art, New York // Ada with Sunglasses by Alex Katz is a striking screenprint from 1990, featuring Katz's iconic muse, Ada, rendered in a bold, flat style typical of his portraiture. The subject’s face is simplified into clean, smooth planes, with minimal shading, while her dark sunglasses and parted lips draw immediate attention. Katz uses a limited color palette, emphasizing contrast between the deep green of the sunglasses and the warm tones of Ada’s skin and lips. Her sleek, flowing hair and the serene light blue background create a sense of calm, placing the focus entirely on her expression. This work is part of the Alex and Ada series, capturing moments from the 1960s to the 1980s. Katz's ability to distill personality and intimacy in such simplified forms is a hallmark of his celebrated style.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
