The Philosophy Behind Pop Art
Andy Warhol once said; “Once you “got” Pop, you could never see a sign the same way again. And once you thought Pop, you could never see America the same way again.” Considered one of the biggest art movements, is Pop Art, which is expressed by bold, flat and metallic colors, and based off of everyday items like advertisements, consumer goods, photographs, comics and celebrities. Unlike most art styles, Pop Art unites art and popular culture. By using widely- familiar objects, Pop Art dramatically changed the idea of what art could be and how it could be made. The philosophy behind Pop Art was to break down the boarders between art and ordinary life. It reflected the time period by using bold, flat colors and a hard edge layout. () Few thought
