• 16．Pop art，which first appeared in the '50s and rose in popularity throughout the '60s，sought to challenge the idea of fine art.
     Andy Warhol （1928-1987）
     Andy Warhol is probably the most influential figure of Pop art.He became a famous celebrity himself.Understanding "star-culture"，advertisement and the effect of the media，he made these the core of his work.His screenprinted images of Marilyn Monroe，Soup cans，and sensational newspaper stories，quickly became synonymous（同义词） with Pop art.
     Roy Lichtenstein （1923-1997）
     Roy Lichtenstein is one of the fathers of the Pop Art movement.In November -2015，Christie's sold Lichtenstein's "Nurse" for a record ＄95.4 million.In this piece，as well as in other works，we can see how the enlarged imagery of adverts and comics with recognizable characters，highlights the ironic （讽刺好笑的） images and situations in every-day life.
     Mimmo Rotella （1918-2006）
     Italian artist Mimmo Rotella，was one of the most important figures of post-war European art.He combined pieces of adverts and posters in his works.For this technique he used a series of torn posters，gathering them to create a tremendously expressive and powerful aesthetic （美学）.His works Sempre lei Marilyn （2002）and Viva America （1963）are easy to recognize.
     James Rosenquist （1933-2017）
     James Rosenquist can be considered one of the strongest and most influential modern Pop Art artists.His work dived deep into cinematography and advertising.He employed techniques which are conventionally used to create Commercial Art.His works appear as an overwhelming mixture of fragmented （成碎片的） images of current celebrities，everyday objects and popular foods - giant lipsticks or spaghetti.If you go to Centre Pompidou，Paris，you can see his work President-Elect.
  
  （1）What artwork will you turn to if you are interested in Andy Warhol？
