Join Bob Potter on Wednesday March 6, 2024 at 11:00AM for this exciting Zoom lecture on Pop Art.
The 1960’s marked a radical turning point in American artistic expression in films, music, and art  created against a back drop of social turmoil and change. Abandoning Abstract Expressionism, which had dominated American modern art after World War II, painters like Andy Warhol, Chuck Close, and Alice Neal along with photographer Cindy Sherman would enthusiastically return to figurative art and celebrate pop culture and themselves in bold depictions of the human form and spirit.  

In a wide range of visual images, profiles of the artists, and historical context, this lecture will explore the artists, the people they painted and the changing historical events and artistic movements that influenced society and the art of portraiture during this pivotal period in American art.
