I picked 1970s Andy Warhol pop art because it was revolutionary for the time. I have looked into this before in my studies and thoroughly enjoyed it. This movement was all about using bold colors and abstracting shapes to make art become more conceptual. Lots of pop art was hugely influenced by celebrities and everyday objects from the time. Some of Andy Warhol’s most famous work includes Campbell’s soup cans and Triple Elvis. This movement – pop art has really influenced the way in which I think about different projects and my work in general – making me be more experimental with color and shape, not necessarily thinking exactly how something should look but being influenced by the seventies and sixties’ color palette and the way in which different artists see the same celebrities in different ways. I found a book, newspaper article and a webpage that all relates to this subject in a different way. This task has taught me how to reference all three of these things correctly.
