Pop Art Is Alive: Classics and Modern Artworks

As a visual art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s, pop art aims to emphasize the nature of things popular in our daily routine. In the pop art most artists used mechanical means of rendering techniques that downplay the expressive hand of the artist. Being an art movement, it has some expressive attributes other styles do not possess.

In pop art vivid manifestation of pop culture reflects in vibrant colors and busy, sometimes hardly recognizable artistic approaches. Street culture, trash, collage, comic books, grunge, graffiti and photo montage are usual design elements and have been widely used by designers and artists few decades ago. And since grunge found its way back and becomes popular again, it makes perfectly sense to analyze design elements of pop art which are similar to this artistic style.

This post presents 75 outstanding examples of classic and modern pop art. Hopefully, everybody will find some inspiration for future works or at least smile when scanning the images presented below. Please notice: pop art can be quite vibrant and not necessarily pretty — in fact, some examples show that it doesn’t have to be pretty at all.

Manifiesto ADG/FAD sobre los concursos

Este documento manifiesta la posición de la Asociación de Directores de Arte y Diseñadores Gráficos ADG/FAD respecto a la convocatoria de concursos entre
diseñadores. Cualquiera que esté de acuerdo puede citarlo o difundirlo citando su
procedencia.

Me parece que es un tema que necesita del apoyo de todo el sector creativo en general, y el interactivo en particular, ahora que está empezando, para no caer en los errores del pasado.
