Pop art

 

Pop art is an art movement that emerged in the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, and it is characterized by its use of popular culture imagery and consumer products as subjects for artworks. Pop artists often drew inspiration from everyday objects, advertisements, comic books, celebrities, and mass-produced items. They sought to challenge traditional notions of fine art and blur the line between high and low culture. Pop art is known for its vibrant colors, bold graphic styles, and a sense of irony and satire. It played a significant role in critiquing and commenting on the consumer-driven nature of post-war society.
