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.

"Audrey on Green" Mixed Media Figurative Collage Composition on Panel Board

"Audrey on Green" 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 Audrey Hepburn, 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 24 inches 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...

Inflatable Unicorn Cloudscape Painting Blue Sky Fantasy Art on Linen Canvas
Inflatable Unicorn Cloudscape Painting Blue Sky Fantasy Art on Linen Canvas

Inflatable Unicorn Cloudscape Painting Blue Sky Fantasy Art on Linen Canvas

By Sofía Cristina Jiménez

Located in FISTERRA, ES

Inflatable unicorn cloudscape painting combining fantasy imagery, balloon animal aesthetics and luminous blue sky atmosphere on Belgian linen. This original acrylic painting by Sofía Cristina Jiménez belongs to the Air series, a body of work in which inflatable figures occupy open skies, cloud formations and weightless atmospheric environments. Depicting a silver unicorn transformed into a floating balloon-like object, the painting combines fantasy art, cloudscape painting and pop surrealist imagery within a composition defined by light, openness and visual suspension. At the center of the work, the unicorn appears as a reflective inflatable figure drifting through a brilliant blue sky. Its metallic silver surface captures and reflects surrounding light while contrasting with the soft textures of the clouds. The segmented construction of the form recalls balloon sculptures and inflatable toys, transforming a mythical creature into an object shaped by contemporary visual culture. Throughout the Air series, Sofía Cristina Jiménez investigates the relationship between fantasy, representation and material transformation. Familiar symbols are displaced from their traditional contexts and reimagined through synthetic forms. Here, the unicorn remains recognizable as a mythical figure associated with imagination, wonder and storytelling, yet its inflatable construction subtly shifts its meaning toward contemporary image culture and manufactured fantasy. The expansive cloudscape creates a sense of freedom and spatial ambiguity. Layers of white clouds establish depth and movement while the saturated blue sky provides a powerful chromatic field that reinforces the sensation of elevation and lightness. Rather than presenting a narrative scene, the painting captures a suspended moment between reality and imagination. Executed in acrylic on Belgian linen, the work combines precise rendering of reflective surfaces with atmospheric painterly passages. The result functions simultaneously as a fantasy painting, cloudscape artwork and contemporary figurative composition, making it particularly suitable for collectors interested in pop surrealism, contemporary fantasy imagery and uplifting architectural interiors. Medium: Acrylic on Belgian linen canvas Series: Air Condition: Excellent original condition Frame: Unframed Installation: Ready to hang Authenticity: Unique original artwork This work is particularly suited for collectors interested in unicorn painting...

Farm at Corner Creek, Original Painting

By John Jaster

Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
A farmhouse and barns sit among rolling green hills and tree-lined pastures. Under the warmth of the summer sun, cows graze lazily in the fields. A creek mirrors the blue sky and the rooftops, adding a serene touch to the pastoral scene.


About the Artist
Artist John Jaster paints in a style he describes as realistic impressions, capturing colorful views of his adventures across the Americas. "People always ask me how I get such deep brilliant colors," says John. "The answer is layers. Since acrylic paint dries mostly transparent, it requires multiple layers of paint to build up to a specific color. With the right lighting that depth of layering is like sunshine glistening through clear water." In college, John felt a pull towards computer science and pursued a career in software architecture. Although the two paths...

By Viktor Mitic

Located in Bloomfield, ON

Playful, colourful and imaginative, Viktor Mitic’s latest series of table-top sculptures appear to merge pop art with science fiction. The colour palette is fun and bright—yellow, red, black and turquoise. These 3-D figures began as digital creations, sculpted out of resin and painted. Their form was initially inspired by the towering abstract sculptures Mitic produced from images of paint splashes on his studio floor. Edition one of ten. “This character has emerged from a shadow of one of my sculptures (as in the video) I have always been a fan of science as well as science fiction writing and movies and for me, X-O-X is a being that came out of a technological world , possibly from another galaxy.” Viktor Mitic “As an icon, or hybrid worthy Viktor Mitic- X-O-X has a synthetic, playful identity. It’s culturally a fusion of influences brought together in one formal public sculpture.” John K. Grande, author, poet, essayist He earned a BFA from the University of Toronto in 1995 with studies in art history at Sheridan College. He has exhibited his post-Pop inspired...
