Andy Warhol Portrait from Pop & OP Exhibit College Station Texas Art Gallery Pop Art

ANDY WARHOL pioneered social media by becoming the first artist who was simultaneously a celebrity and star on camera- friends with celebrities and closely tied to media & marketing. A wide breadth of art was created by Warhol: photographs, prints, paintings, and film. Andy Warhol was the leader of the Pop Art movement- his work becoming the most influential in the second half of the 20th century.

 

VICTOR VASARELY fathered the Op-Art movement, which focused on issues of perception usually in the second dimension. His early career as a graphic artist developed into iconic screen-printed optical illusions. Vasarely’s work also abstracted geometry in an attempt to highlight perspective through the relationship of the composition.
