the 'pop id'
project

What is Pop Art? Is it the same for everyone and how has it changed since the 1960's?

Practitioner Statement

What is pop art?

During a time of increasing economic prosperity in the 1950s and 1960s, young American and British artists made popular culture their subject matter. They looked to the popular arts of cartoons, movies, consumer goods and advertisements (then called ‘commercial art’, now commonly called ‘graphic art’). Pop artists rebelled against the abstraction and large gestural brushwork that was prevalent in art at the time. They blurred the boundaries between art and everyday objects.
