Modern Pop Art
Emerging after the nonsensical and surprising pieces of
Surrealism, modern pop art artists perhaps ironically began to utilize largely commercialized ideas, images and aspects in their work. Instead of the idea of sophisticated and elite fine art, pop art celebrated mass culture. Many materials used in pop art paintings were literal replications, taken out of expected context and therefore extremely recognizable and memorable.
One of the more renowned pop art artists,
Andy Warhol used iconic American advertisements, celebrities, media and other pop culture references to create his work. As the artist behind some of the highest priced paintings, much of Andy Warhol’s art is instantly recognizable to the general public – exactly what pop art hoped to establish.
