About Pop Art
Pop Art is an art movement popularized in the 1950's. Its distinct features include the use of popular elements in art and not just elitist ones as used by the status quo art forms of the time. One if its main proponents is Andy Warhol.
Andy's works showcase artistic expression with the use of celebrity culture. One of his iconic works is Marilyn Diptych which is silkscreen painting of actress Marilyn Monroe.
Pop Art became huge during the 1950s in both the United Kingdom and the United States.
