  3. ART

  4. 1960’s – new art movement based on everyday objects and people from popular culture. • Named “Pop art” because the subject was based on popular items such as Coke bottles, beer and soup cans. • Impersonal attitude towards the work and subject – shows frustration with the art establishment. • Directly contrasts Abstract Expressionism with recognizable subject matter and no emotional content. • Incorporates with, humour and satire. • The average viewer much preferred Pop Art to abstraction so it soon became in demand.

  8. Subject matter: comics derived paintings, in direct contrast to abstract art of the 1950’s • Images were stereotypical and therefore familiar to the viewer (not usually in such a large scale) • Painted in oils but used commercial printing method: Benday dots

  11. Op ART

  12. Op (“Optical”) Art uses scientific principles to create the sensation of movement by tricking the viewer’s eye. • There are no focal points or centres of interest in optical art. • Sometimes movement is created through the use of colour and sometimes shapes. • Carefully calculated and manipulated.

  13. 2 6 Bridget Riley. Metamorphosis. (1964) Acrylic emulsion on hardboard.

  14. Master at creating pulsating movement in her paintings • Became disillusioned with Op art as it became used for commercial purposes • Explored colour contrasts through tesselations • Began as an art teacher and later an illustrator before working solely as an artist

  15. FIELD

  16. Colour Field developed during the 60’s and 70’s - owes much to Mark Rothko. • Relies solely on flat fields of colour – impression is cool and serene. • Some colour field painting is very loose (eg. Rothko, Frankenthaler, Louis) • Some colour field painting is called “hard edge” (eg. Albers, Bush, Stella) • Became important aspects of the interior environment as murals in buildings. • Draw viewer into active participation with the work – goal: to create a total environment.
