Pop art

Pop art emerged in the mid-20th century as a vibrant and bold artistic movement that celebrated popular culture and consumerism. Artists drew inspiration from mass-produced images, advertising, comic books, and everyday objects to create works that were colorful, dynamic, and often playful. Characterized by bright, eye-catching colors, bold outlines, and the use of recognizable imagery, pop art aimed to blur the lines between high and low culture, challenging traditional notions of art and inviting viewers to reconsider the world around them through a lens of irony and satire. Prominent artists of the movement include Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg.
