Contemporary Pop

In the 1960s, Andy Warhol turned the lens of art history towards popular culture, transforming items found at the supermarket and well-known images of celebrities into subject matter worthy of art. Over 50 years later, contemporary artists like Damien Hirst, Takashi Murakami, and Jeff Koons offer a fresh take on Warhol’s sensibility, filling their works with cultural symbols of the 21st century, such as pharmaceuticals, manga cartoons, and balloon animals.
