More about Pop Art Movement

Pop Art started in both United Kingdom and the United States as well as Pop Culture and Pop Music with emblematic figures such as The Beatles or The Velvet Underground. The artistic movement raised in the mid-50's with the post-war economic boom and was encouraging a controversial but delighted vision of art. The word "Pop" is the diminutive form of Popular and was first used to illustrate popular imagery and art.

Roy Lichtenstein drew inspiration in comic books and commercial printing techniques to create his own footprint in Pop Art movement. He, eventually, makes his artwork accessible to anyone. The Girl with a Ball painting printed on a high-end fridge magnet is from the portfolio MoMA's collection, 1961, and is part of Modern Art Museum "collection.

Lichtenstein

Roy Lichtenstein is one of the prime contributors to the Pop Art movement. Lichtenstein art essentially paved the way for more commercial styles of art to flourish by blending the “low” and “high” forms of art and create something new. Using comic books and advertisements as inspiration, he reimagined pop culture through a highly skilled and critical lens. Lichtenstein eventually established his own and very unique voice. One of his most effective pieces, Whaam! is a stellar example of his ability to imagine stunning works of art. Whaam! is energetic and also features his ability to create a consistent and well-composed image. The diptych has an expressive power and remains a fantastic piece of work. Lichtenstein art achieved success worldwide, yet would still often be criticized for his methods and choices of subject matter. Despite this, he remains seen as a definitive example of the Pop Art movement and a master artist in his own right.
