POP EXPLOSION: the Artist and Popular Culture

Call for Artists:

"Once you 'got' Pop, you could never see a sign the same way again. And once you thought Pop, you could never see America the same way again." -Andy Warhol


Fine art often references popular culture: mass media created by shared trends in music, film, fashion, celebrities, consumerism and advertising.  Sweetwater Center for the Arts is presenting an upcoming exhibition, POP EXPLOSION: the Artist and Popular Culture, featuring the impact of popular culture and how artists are accessing it to inform their work.

Artists are encouraged to submit work that explores these influences of contemporary popular culture.

This exhibition is juried by Nicholas Chambers, The Milton Fine Curator of Art at the Andy Warhol Museum and Robert Beckman, Director at Artists Image Resource.
