POP ART STYLE

Perhaps one of the most influential contemporary art movements, Pop art emerged in the 1950s. In stark contrast to traditional artistic practice, its practitioners drew on imagery from popular culture — comic books, advertising, product packaging and other commercial media — to create original Pop art paintings, prints and sculptures that celebrated ordinary life in the most literal way.

ORIGINS OF POP ART

CHARACTERISTICS OF POP ART 

  • Bold imagery
  • Bright, vivid colors
  • Straightforward concepts
  • Engagement with popular culture 
  • Incorporation of everyday objects from advertisements, cartoons, comic books and other popular mass media

POP ARTISTS TO KNOW

ORIGINAL POP ART ON 1STDIBS

The Pop art movement started in the United Kingdom as a reaction, both positive and critical, to the period’s consumerism. Its goal was to put popular culture on the same level as so-called high culture.

Richard Hamilton’s 1956 collage Just what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing? is widely believed to have kickstarted this unconventional new style.

Pop art works are distinguished by their bold imagery, bright colors and seemingly commonplace subject matter. Practitioners sought to challenge the status quo, breaking with the perceived elitism of the previously dominant Abstract Expressionism and making statements about current events. Other key characteristics of Pop art include appropriation of imagery and techniques from popular and commercial culture; use of different media and formats; repetition in imagery and iconography; incorporation of mundane objects from advertisements, cartoons and other popular media; hard edges; and ironic and witty treatment of subject matter.

Although British artists launched the movement, they were soon overshadowed by their American counterparts. Pop art is perhaps most closely identified with American Pop artist Andy Warhol, whose clever appropriation of motifs and images helped to transform the artistic style into a lifestyle. Most of the best-known American artists associated with Pop art started in commercial art (Warhol made whimsical drawings as a hobby during his early years as a commercial illustrator), a background that helped them in merging high and popular culture.

Roy Lichtenstein was another prominent Pop artist that was active in the United States. Much like Warhol, Lichtenstein drew his subjects from print media, particularly comic strips, producing paintings and sculptures characterized by primary colors, bold outlines and halftone dots, elements appropriated from commercial printing. Recontextualizing a lowbrow image by importing it into a fine-art context was a trademark of his style. Neo-Pop artists like Jeff Koons and Takashi Murakami further blurred the line between art and popular culture.

Pop art rose to prominence largely through the work of a handful of men creating works that were unemotional and distanced — in other words, stereotypically masculine. However, there were many important female Pop artists, such as Rosalyn Drexler, whose significant contributions to the movement are recognized today. Best known for her work as a playwright and novelist, Drexler also created paintings and collages embodying Pop art themes and stylistic features.

"You'll Never Know" Mixed Media Figurative Collage Composition on Panel Board

By Jon Davenport

Located in New York, NY

This piece depicts a colorful collage composition portrait of Marilyn Monroe, as Jon Davenport explores the process of deconstructing iconic imagery from the past and present. Davenport start’s out with photos of his paint-stained studio floor and collages in articles/advertising from an array of vintage magazines collected over the years; plus any other interesting stuff captured on his travels. He then transfers the images to a panel board, layering them on with gel medium, together with strokes, splashes, drips, and splats of paint. Once it's dry, another layer of gel medium is poured on to give it a melting effect. After it drys off again, another layer of paint is added to embellish a few areas and to accentuate or fade out certain aspects. And then, he finally adds a coat of polyurethane for protection and making the colors pop. This unique work is executed on a wood panel board and comes ready to be displayed with hanging wire on verso, signed by the artist lower right. Art measures 36 x 36 in From biology student to owning and running a creative agency in London to a career as a fine artist, life has taken Jon Davenport on a rewarding and unconventional journey. Despite his scientific beginnings, he’s always had a strong artistic streak weaving its way through his different career paths. Growing up in Ipswich, UK, Jon was always an avid drawer, and could often be found with a pencil and paper in hand. With the arrival of his first computer, he embraced the new frontier of digital art and had work published in one of those early computer magazines. His creative urges took a backseat to get a biology degree at Brunel University in London. It was afterward, in his first job working at the Archant newspaper group in Ipswich, that he quickly progressed from plate maker to becoming an integral member of the art studio. It was during this time that he taught himself photoshop, desktop publishing, and graphic & web design. After a few years, he set up a design agency, and eventually went full time and moved to London. This proved to be a successful move, working for a number of clients such as Nike and Virgin, and gaining praise from the likes of Richard Branson and Tony Blair. It wasn’t until Jon moved to the USA to marry his wife, Atlanta artist Christy Kinard...

By Claes Oldenburg

Located in Toronto, Ontario

Claes Oldenberg (b.1929) is a Swedish-born American artist, renowned for his contribution to Pop art by way of his iconic soft sculptures and public installations. In 1962, Oldenburg debuted his revolutionary soft sculptures at the Green Gallery in New York. Three giant, squishy sculptures of an ice cream cone, a hamburger, and a slice of cake, swelled across the gallery floor, forever changing the way we define sculpture. It has been noted that Oldenburg's early work was largely inspired by Yayoi Kusama's hand-sewn phallic-shaped soft sculptures that enveloped the surfaces of ironing boards, sofas, and boats. Click here to see an exhibition poster featuring a later example of Kusama's soft sculptures. Ranging from voluminous hamburgers (famously on display at the AGO) to ballistic badminton shuttlecocks, Oldenberg's colossal sculptures replicate commonplace objects on a grand scale, often disrupting the environment they inhibit with curious and playful subtexts. The confrontational nature of Oldenberg's sculptures places an emphasis on the viewer, asking us to reconsider our relationship to these recognizable, but obscure, objects. "Geometric Mouse...

Flowers, After Andy Warhol -Pop Art, Enamel on porcelain, Contemporary, Edition

By Andy Warhol

Located in Zug, CH

Andy Warhol Flowers, 1980 Enamel on porcelain Edition of 49 51 x 51 x 2 cm (20 x 20 x 0.7 in) In wooden box. Screenprint on porcelain in wooden frame signed in the glazing, numbered on label verso In mind condition. The piece is offered unframed. Throughout art history, the flower and its symbolism have been a subject matter for many renowned artists. Andy Warhol explored the qualities of the flower image through his Pop Art prism in the Flower series of 1964, thus creating cartoon-like symbols that would be instantly recognised. The 1964 Flower series became one of his most iconic and successful works.
 Based on a discovered photograph of hibiscus blossoms, Warhol drenched the flowers’ floppy shapes with a variation of vibrant colours, transforming them into psychedelic indoor décor. Playing with traditional art historical themes, Andy Warhol gave a particular twist to this historically accepted symbol of life. The electric colours of his flowers, drawn from a darker and rich undergrowth background might be the indicator of an extreme vision of life, a life lived on the edge. Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was an American artist, a leading figure of the Pop Art movement. ​Using a variety of media materials from photographs up to computer-generated art, Warhol's works explore the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity, culture and advertisement that flourished by the 1960s. Emerging from the poverty and obscurity of an Eastern European immigrant family in Pittsburgh, Warhol became a charismatic magnet for bohemian New York. In 1960, he began to produce his first canvases depicting Popeye and Dick Tracy. After Marilyn Monroe’s death in August 1962, he started working from snapshots of the star’s already legendary face, which had been widely distributed by the world’s press. His choice of subjects clearly relates to an obsession with demise – his Marilyns, his Ten Lizies (created when the actress Elizabeth Taylor was seriously ill), and also his Elvis. Part of the “Death and Disaster” series, Andy Warhol´s...

Larry Rivers - Works from the Hirshhorn Museum - hand signed to museum director
Larry Rivers - Works from the Hirshhorn Museum - hand signed to museum director

Larry Rivers - Works from the Hirshhorn Museum - hand signed to museum director

By Larry Rivers

Located in New York, NY

Lithograph with offset lettering Hand signed in graphite by Larry Rivers and inscribed to Al (Abram) Lerner - the Hirshhorn Museum's very first director (more about both Rivers and Lerner below) Also bears artists printed name, copyright and date (1981) A rare proof, aside from the regular edition of 400 Unframed This marvelous hand signed print was published on the occasion of a major 1981 Larry Rivers exhibition at the Hirshhorn. Forty-three works by Rivers, including paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media compositions selected from the Hirshhorn’s permanent collection, were displayed in this exhibition, among them I Like Ingres, Too; Molly and Breakfast; and the massive piece The Russian Revolution. Larry Rivers Biography (courtesy Guggenheim Museum): b. 1923, Bronx, New York; d. 2002, New York Born in August 17, 1923, and raised in the Bronx, Larry Rivers was a painter, sculptor, printmaker, poet, and musician at the crossroads of Abstract Expressionism and Pop art, who bucked prevailing trends in favor of a more singular style. The son of Ukrainian Jewish immigrants, he was known as Yitzroch Loiza (Irving) Grossberg until age 17, when a nightclub emcee announced his band as “Larry Rivers and the Mud Cats.” He adopted the name that same year. Following a brief stint in the U.S. Army, Rivers spent a year at the Juilliard School of Music studying musical theory and composition. He then pursued his only formal artistic training at Hans Hofmann’s painting school in New York from 1947 to 1948. Countering the vogue for abstraction at the time, Hofmann’s approach emphasized drawing as the foundation of all art making and presented the old masters as rich resources for creative exchange. In 1951, Rivers received a BA in art education from New York University. Proceeding from the conviction that figuration was not antithetical to modernism, Rivers completed his first major work, The Burial, in 1951, signaling the major concerns that he would return to throughout his life. With this painterly restaging of Gustave Courbet’s masterpiece A Burial at Ornans (Un enterrement à Ornans, 1849–50), Rivers began a sustained engagement with canonical paintings, imaginatively connecting contemporary art with art history. In works such as Washington Crossing the Delaware (1953), Rivers similarly mined the past for inspiration; a few years later, he began to take up more contemporary images, as in Dutch Masters and Cigars (1964), which was partly copied from a cigar box that itself depicted Rembrandt’s 1662 painting The Syndics of the Clothmakers’ Guild (De Staalmeesters). Subsequently, Rivers made several works that combine sculpture and painting, including I Like Olympia in Blackface (1970), which reverses the roles of Édouard Manet’s Olympia and her African servant. Later that decade, Rivers began appropriating his own work from the 1950s and 1960s with the series Golden Oldies (1978–79). In an interview with his close friend the poet Frank O’Hara, Rivers illuminated the premises of his approach, saying, “I think of a picture of a smorgasbord of the recognizable.”¹ Two of his largest projects adopted broad historical themes. The History of the Russian Revolution from Marx to Mayakovsky (1965), an enormous mixed-media assemblage, incorporated painted portraits, architectural cutouts, stenciled lettering, and found objects. The monumental History of Matzah: The Story of the Jews (1984–85) also used text and three-dimensional relief elements, this time to narrate Jewish history from Moses to Theodore Herzl, the founder of Zionism. Rivers’s first major survey was organized by the Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University, Waltham, Massachusetts, in 1965; it traveled to the Pasadena Art Museum; Jewish Museum, New York; Detroit Institute of Arts; and Minneapolis Institute of Arts. A retrospective of his paintings and drawings opened at the Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, Ohio, in 1990, and toured the United States for a further two years, with stops in the Norton Gallery of Art, West Palm Beach, Florida; Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Indiana; Scottsdale Center for the Arts, Arizona; and J. B. Speed Art Museum, Louisville, Kentucky. In 1997, the Philharmonic Center for the Arts, Naples, Florida, staged a retrospective of the works Rivers made between 1980 and 1997. His most comprehensive retrospective to date was at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., in 2002. Rivers continued painting up until three months before his death in Southampton, New York, on August 14, 2002. More about Al (Abram) Lerner – the Hirshhorn’s first director First director of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, 1974-1984.
