Pop Art in the Mid-1950s: A Cultural Reflection by Savannah Ott & Destini Spencer

Explore the vibrant world of Mid-1950s Pop Art as Savannah Ott and Destini Spencer reflect on the significant cultural shifts of the time. As the Depression wanes and the world recovers from World War II, the art scene is dominated by iconic figures such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Jasper Johns. With bold colors, everyday objects transformed into art, and innovative techniques like monoprints and silk screening, this period embodies a fascinating confluence of irony and excitement in American culture, marked by the looming influences of Communism, Capitalism, and the Vietnam War.
