English POP ART

by Richard HamiltonEven if the American artist Andy Warhol remains the emblematic figure of POP ART,  this artistic movement uprises in England during the 50’s. The termination “pop” is due to Lawrance Alloway, a critical of art. At this moment, relations between man and technology was the matter of concern of  the independent group, whose Richard Hamilton  is among.

Pop artists lean upon billboards, advertisement, magazine culture and supermarket products but uses elements of American materialism.
