It was a movement and a cultural phenomenon. Now Pop Art in America: Selections from the Museum of Art | Fort Lauderdale, Nova Southeastern University, is a new exhibit open at the Ansin Family Art Gallery inside the beautiful Miramar Cultural Center.
This upbeat exhibition, which runs through April 2011, samples the work of the best known American Pop artists, including Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist and Roy Lichtenstein, all of whom have embraced mass media and often employed mechanical processes to create their work rather than those traditionally associated with fine art. The Pop Art movement, which began in the late 1950s, was rooted in the imagery of mass popular culture by themes and techniques found primarily in advertising, comic books, music and mundane cultural objects. It asserted that an artist's use of the mass-produced visual commodities of popular culture was contiguous with the perspective of fine art. This concept refers not only to the art itself but the attitudes that led to it.
