Pop Art

Product detailed description

​

Pop art charts the emergence and rise of one of the most influential art movements of the 20th century. Flavia Frigeri traces, in an easily readable form, how violent colors, irony, and everyday motifs transformed consumerism into culture – from post-war America and Britain to the global scene of the 1960s.

The book presents the work of key artists (Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Richard Hamilton, Peter Blake) as well as lesser-known examples from Japan, Venezuela, and Argentina. Thematic chapters explore advertising, politics, domestic life, celebrity culture, war, and the Space Race, while a timeline, glossary of terms, and recommendations for further reading guide the reader.
