First, a little history lesson.<\/strong> When pop art entered the scene in the late 1950s, it swiftly became the art of the masses. Common objects like Campbell\u2019s Soup Can labels and boxes of commercial soap were used to inspire feelings of romance, sentimentality and humor. Leading the movement was Andy Warhol, an American painter and filmmaker. Warhol was in love with the cult of celebrity and enjoyed infusing the images of some of America\u2019s most beloved icons into his work.\u00a0 One of Warhol\u2019s famous pieces, <\/em>\u201cEight Elvises,\u201d recently sold for a record $100 million. In case you\u2019re wondering what $100 million looks like, here you go:<\/p>\n

Of course, some naysayers believe that pop art is a hackneyed, juvenile hobby for artists who can\u2019t execute their visions using traditional mediums.\u00a0 While I strongly disagree, do you consider pop art a valid form of artistic expression?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
