Summary |
From the emergence of pop art in the 1950s through to its reinvented forms in the 1980s, this book explores the dynamic engagement of art with popular culture. Drawn from major public and private collections around the world, this book includes over 180 works by 77 artists including pivotal works by artists such as Lichtenstein, Warhol, Richter and Hockney. Beginning with early pop art in the United Kingdom, Europe and America, it proceeds through the key years of high or classic pop in the 1960s and early 1970s including a substantial Australian component and finishes with a new generation of artists who began exhibiting in the late 1970s with works dating up to 1986 |
