Summary

When it emerged in the 1950s, the Pop Art movement presented a challenge to fine art with its incorporation of images from television, newspapers, and advertising. Artists used humour, provocation, and garish gestures to help dissolve the barriers between high and low culture. Over time, Pop Art developed into one of the most influential movements of the 20th century and many of it's works have achieved iconic status. This introduction to Pop Art focuses on 50 of the movement's most important works, and covers every major artist of the style.
