Pop art emerged in the 1950s, first in Britain following in the US, as a movement in reaction to elite art movements such as abstract expressionism. Pop art utilizes imagery of popular culture items, particularly advertising items and celebrity figuresoften kitschy and ironic.
Though the pop art movement emerged in the 1950s, its great impetus was in the the 1960s with such popular artists as Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. The emergence of computer graphic capabilities in the late 1980s and 1990s has resurged the pop art movement with a flair all its own.
