The POP ART movement was fueled to revolt against American Abstract Expressionism. POP ART drew attention to the enormous pull mass marketing and commercialism was having on the American society on a border of being satirical.

The main mover and shaker of the time was Andy Warhol.
Andy Warhol was known for his silkscreen technique, where he would choose subjects such as the Campbell Soup Can, Mickey Mouse, Elvis and Marilyn Monroe. These ICONS are forever immortalized in our senses as commercial symbols and thanks to Mr. Warhol, as Art.

We will analyze how Warhol used repetition to strengthen art, how color can alter mood and we will explore the basic fundamentals of printmaking.
