“an art movement that began in the U.S. in the
1950s and reached its peak of activity in the 1960s,
chose as its subject matter the anonymous,
everyday, standardized, and banal iconography in
American life, as comic strips, billboards,
commercial products, and celebrity images, and
dealt with them typically in such forms as outsize
commercially smooth paintings, mechanically
reproduced silkscreens, large-scale facsimiles, and
soft sculptures” (dictionary.com).
