Pop Art Photography for Sale

During the 1950s in the United Kingdom, artists became aware of the impact of capitalism and mass consumption on the evolution of American society. Through art, they expressed their observations of social change and the feelings of their generation. Started by Richard Hamilton and Eduardo Paolozzi, the trend reached the United States in the late 1950s and led to the emergence of a new generation of artists : Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, who immortalized the symbols of mass consumption. 

This movement was called "Pop Art," short for Popular Art, named after its use of iconic images from popular culture, such as celebrities, actors, models and musicians. Artists favored cheaper and easily reproducible mediums which allowed them to mass produce their works, whether they were paintings, drawings or screen prints. Screen printing became the medium of choice, as it allowed artists to produce many copies of the same art work. With Pop Art, art lost its uniqueness and became more accessible. 

Pop Art reached Japan in the 1980s through the Kaikai Kiki movement, led by Takashi Murakami, which provocatively criticized society by using elements of Japanese culture. 

Previously used for research, photography gradually became an art form in its own right with Surrealism and Pop Art. Artists used it to appropriate cinematic images and music icons, as well as evoke social issues. 

All these works are part of an artistic movement but they also represent more than that. They reflect the attitude of artists at the time, who put forward an art trend that used and distorted advertising, television and the media. 

Artsper has works from the greatest Pop Artists : Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Takashi Murakami as well as works by Bea Simpson, Franck Doat, Bernard Pras, Monika Nowak, Sergio Mesa, Tom Wilson and Eric Isselée.
