His work is attributed to Modern Realism and Pop art. Most of his works are portraits, but he also created landscapes and architectural images. In 1954 the Roko Gallery in New York presented the first solo-exhibition of his work. In 1974 the Whitney Museum of American Art organized a travelling exhibition of Alex Katz’s prints. Ever since, Katz has exhibited his work internationally. His work is also part of prominent private and public collections. (cko)
