Pop Art was an international movement that emerged in the 1950s and flourished in the 1960s. Pop artists drew inspiration from sources in popular and commercial mass culture, such a comic books, advertising, and product packaging.  By celebrating such banal imagery, the Pop movement presented a challenge to fine-art traditions and values. Artists associated with Pop include Robert Indiana, James Rosenquist, Marisol, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Claes Oldenburg.
