Pop art
Comic-panel canvases
Pop art is an art movement originating in the 1950s and 60s that drew imagery from commercial and popular culture—advertisements, comic books, consumer products, celebrities.
Artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein challenged distinctions between "high" art and mass culture, often using bold colors and mechanical reproduction techniques.
The term sometimes describes any art with a bright, commercial aesthetic: The poster had a pop art vibe.
