Art Movement : Pop Art
Pop Art : Pop art is an artistic movement that emerged in the late 1950s in England and the United States. Characterized by themes and techniques drawn from mass culture, such as advertising and comic books, Pop Art is widely interpreted as a reaction to the then-dominant ideas of abstract expressionism. Pop art, like pop music, aimed to incorporate popular as opposed to elitist culture into art, and targeted a broad audience.Major Artists : * Peter Blake * Derek Boshier * Patrick Caulfield * Jim Dine * Keith Haring * Richard Hamilton * Robert Indiana * Jasper Johns * Allen Jones * Yayoi Kusama * Roy Lichtenstein * Peter Max * Claes Oldenburg * Eduardo Paolozzi * Hariton Pushwagner * Mel Ramos * Robert Rauschenberg * James Rosenquist * Ed Ruscha * Wayne Thiebaud * Andy Warhol * Tom Wesselmann * Philip Guston
