Pop art is a visual art movement that emerged in the late 1950s in the United States.
Pop art is an art movement that challenged tradition asserting that an artist's use of the mass-produced visual aspects of popular culture can go hand-in-hand with the perspective of fine art.

Pop art sometimes does not refer to the art itself as to the attitudes that led to it.

21. Pop Art in the United States
Pop art began in the United States in the late 1950s.
During the 1960s, pop art underwent many different changes.
During the 1960s, American advertising had adopted many elements and inflections of modern art and functioned on a very sophisticated level.
As a result, American artists had to search deeper for dramatic styles that would distance art from commercials and advertisements.

22. American Pop Artists
Two of the most important painters in the establishment of America's pop art vocabulary were Jasper Johns and in particular Robert Rauschenberg.
Rauschenberg's works have relationships to the work of Kurt Schwitters and other Dadaists, he was more concern with society of the moment.
Rauschenberg was able to create unity out of topical events in the life of everyday America made his work unique.

23. American Pop Artists
Roy Lichtenstein is of equal importance to American pop art.
Lichtenstein's work defines the basic premise of pop art better than any other through parody.
Lichtenstein uses the comic strip as subject matter and then produces a hard-edged, precise composition that documents while it parodies on a softer manner.
Lichtenstein's works share a direct attachment to the common place image of American popular culture but also treats the subject in an impersonal manner clearly showing the praise of mass production.
