Pop Art Pop-Up
Pop art emerged in Britain and the United States in the late 1950s, becoming a worldwide phenomenon through the 1960s and 1970s. Taking popular culture as a source of inspiration, Pop art often employs bold colors; commercial design, and printing techniques; everyday, sometimes banal, subject matter, or conversely, images from celebrity life and mass media. Pop art had mass appeal, influencing not only artists and designers but also the mass culture itself.
Pop Art Pop-Up features works drawn from Cranbrook Art Museum’s permanent collection, showcasing the work of iconic Pop artists such as Jim Dine, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, and more. The exhibition also underscores the enduring influence of Pop in the work of later artists and designers like Ed Rossbach, Terence Main, and Keith Haring, and in the work of contemporary artists such as KAWS.
