Discover art for sale. Buy and sell Pop Art prints & editions online. Pop Art emerged in 1950s America and Britain, bringing mass media and consumer culture into the realm of high art.
Pop Art, short for ‘popular art’, celebrates everything recognisable and mainstream. In the 1960s, artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein featured mass-produced Coca-Cola bottles, Campbell’s soup cans and comic books in their work, often using industrial techniques like screen-printing. Today, Japanese artist Takashi Murakami finds inspiration in Japan’s thriving ‘otaku’ (geek) culture, while American artist KAWS gives a twist on popular characters like The Simpsons and the Smurfs in his art.
