Pop  Art:  A  New  ArIsIc  Movement  •  What  Is  Pop  Art?    -­‐The  term  Pop-­‐Art  was  invented  by  BriIsh  curator  Lawrence  Alloway  

in  1955,  to  describe  a  new  form  of  "Popular"  art  -­‐  a  movement  characterized  by  the  imagery  of  consumerism  and  popular  culture.    

-­‐Challenged  tradiIonal  art  through  the  use  of  the  mass-­‐produced  popular  culture  could  be  considered  “fine  art”.    

-­‐  Removed  the  material  from  its  context  and  isolates  the  object,  or  combines  it  with  other  objects,  for  contemplaIon.

Pop  Art  History  ConInued  •  Abstract  Expressionism:  This  movement  was  the  popular  form  of  art  at  the  Ime.  

(1950’s)  •  This  school  of  art  believed  in  “painterly”  strokes  and  using  ones  subconscious  to  

create  work.  •  Pop  Art  reacted  to  this  by  playing  on  moIfs  found  in  the  visual  culture.  Instead  of  

isolaIng  oneself  in  the  mind,  pop  arIsts  synthesizd  the  commercial  world  and  held  the  mirror  up  to  it.

Pop  cont…  •  Thus  they  focused  on  the  preoccupaIons  shared  by  

most  American  consumers:  food,  cars  ,  death,  and  love.    

•  Typically,  this  was  achieved  using  brash,  or  saIrical,  imagery  with  strong  visual  impact:    ”we  are  holding  the  mirror  up  to  "modern  society”.  

•  Pop-­‐art  was  "the"  post-­‐war  expression  of  a  world  wholly  preoccupied  the  pursuit  of  materialism.

INFLUENECES OF POP •  What  invenIon  was  made  available  to  the  American  home  in  1950?

TELEVISION!  •  Television  was  a  constant  stream  of  images  and  commercials  that  had  never  been  that  close  to  the  American  people  unIl  this  Ime.    

•  Children  now  could  watch  cartoons  in  their  home  instead  of  just  before  movies.  RocknRoll  was  streamed  into  homes,  where  now  pop  idols  had  a  face  with  a  voice.

Wayne  Thiebaud:  San  Francisco  Pop  Artsist  •  Wayne  Thiebaud  (born  November  15,  

1920)  is  a  Bay  Area  painter.  •  Most  famous  works  are  of  cakes,  pastries,  

toys  and  lipsIcks.    •  His  last  name  is  pronounced  "Tee-­‐bo."    •  He  is  associated  with  the  Pop  Art  

movement  because  of  his  interest  in  objects  of  mass  culture.  

•   Thiebaud  uses  heavy  pigment  and  exaggerated  colors  to  depict  his  subjects,  and  the  well-­‐defined  shadows  characterisIc  of  adverIsements  are  almost  always  included  in  his  work.

Oil  Pastel  coloring  techniques  

•  Select  your  subject:  

Page 20: Pop Art PDF

Oil  Pastel  coloring  techniques  

•  Step  1:  LIGHTLY  draw  the  contour  of  your  object,  subject.    

•  Do  not  shade  with  your  pencil-­‐  save  that  for  the  oil  pastels.  

Page 21: Pop Art PDF

Oil  Pastel  coloring  techniques  •  Step  2:  Looking  at  your  

object  choose  its  MEDIUM  color.    

•  This  is  the  color  that  is  not  the  lightest  or  the  darkest.    

•  Color  these  medium  tones  in  each  part  of  your  drawing.  Use  broad  light  strokes-­‐  DO  NOT  press  hard  with  the  oil  pastels  at  this  point.  

Page 22: Pop Art PDF

Oil  Pastel  coloring  techniques  •  Step  3  :  Choose  different  

light  and  dark  tones.    •  Start  lightly  blocking  in  

the  light  and  darks.    •  This  is  why  it  is  most  

important  that  you  have  a  reference  and  not  making  it  up.  References  take  the  guess  work  out  of  color  choice.  

•  DO  NOT  press  hard  yet  with  the  pastels.  Build  up  your  service  first.  

Page 23: Pop Art PDF

Oil  Pastel  coloring  techniques  •  Step  4:  Now,  using  your  

MEDIUM  tone  start  blending  your  colors  together.  This  means  you  can  press  hard  with  the  pastels  now.    

•  Because  we  are  working  with  POP  Art  style,  feel  free  to  squeeze  in  unexpected  colors.  

•  Ajer  that  press  hard  with  your  lights  and  darks  to  make  your  drawing  richer!  

•  You  can  also  use  your  fingers  to  smooth  pigment  together.
