More about »Pop Art Design«
Prominent authors describe how artists and designers employed the same motifs and methods, and also elucidate the intermingling of art and life: utilitarian objects were artistically transformed into pictorial motifs and sculptures, while irony, quotation, and collage were used to develop a new everyday aesthetic. Among the book´s authors are experts on Pop Art such as Marco Livingstone and Steven Heller, the German Pop theoretician Diedrich Diedrichsen, and Mathias Schwartz-Clauss, curator of the eponymous exhibition that is accompanied by this publication. Their sound scholarly analyses and the book´s opulent graphics make Pop Art Design into a kaleidoscope for rediscovering the era of Pop!
