Born November 29, 1933,  James Rosenquist is an American painter anda prominent figure in the pop-art movement. Working as a billboard painter in the late 1950s, Rosenquist learned the painting skills that would be translated into large-scale paintings.  Although having little contact with Warhol and Lichtenstein during the 1960s, the critics labeled Rosenquist as a pop artist; his use of culturally recognizable imagery and advertising aesthetics influenced this opinion. Rosenquist typically combines discordant images to create a visual narrative. In addition to his paintings, Rosenquist has produced numerous drawings, collages and prints. His print ‘Time Dust’ (1992) is purportedly the largest print in the world, measuring 7 by 35 feet.
