FreeThe New Canaan Museum and Historical Society welcomes ArtScapades to present Pop!: Art From the 1950s to the 1960s
Pop art emerged in the UK and the US during the 1950s. Initially, Pop Art was seen as radical and shocking, then became accepted as an exciting, colorful, and vibrant art movement. ArtScapades will look at the lives and works of Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and David Hockney. These artists celebrated commonplace objects and everyday people, seeking to elevate popular culture to the level of fine art.
