Breaking the Frame: Pop Art

What happens when art stops looking at the museum and starts looking at the supermarket? Find out in this engaging lecture by Dr. Terryl Lawrence, exploring Pop Art — the bold, brash, and brilliantly provocative movement that turned everyday life into fine art.
From advertising and comic books to consumer goods and celebrity culture, Pop Art challenged everything the art world held sacred. Dr. Lawrence will trace the movement's origins as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, explore how it resonated so immediately with the public, and highlight the towering influence of Andy Warhol alongside other major figures whose work continues to shape visual culture today.
Each lecture concludes with a visit to Modernisms: Art from the Manes Collection for a focused look at a related artwork in the galleries. Coffee and pastries provided by the Muse Café.
Part of the summer lecture series Breaking the Frame: Reflecting on Modern Art.
