CURATED LIBRARIES

Pop Art Bookshelf


Pop marks the end of art’s false elevation from entertainment, camp and kitsch. Through the paintings of Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist, Roy Lichtenstein and others, such everyday fodder as comic strips and beer cans offered a subject matter that any citizen of a late capitalist culture could recognize, and through Pop’s embrace of consumer imagery and its ethic of ironized remove, the lofty values of Abstract Expressionism seemed to vaporize almost overnight. “No movement in history ever established itself so quickly,” wrote the critic Calvin Tomkins. Our Pop library represents the best monographs on these artists and such critical books as Alice Goldfarb Marquis’ wonderfully readable social history of the movement, The Pop Revolution, and John Wilcock’s The Autobiography and Sex Life of Andy Warhol.

Featured image, Look Mickey (1961) by Roy Lichtenstein, is reproduced from Alice Goldfarb Marquis' The Pop Revolution.

“No movement in history ever established itself so quickly.”
