Pop Art is widely regarded as the most significant artistic movement
since 1945. Reflecting on the cult of celebrity, commodity fetishism and
media reproduction that permeated everyday life in the postwar era, Pop
Art continues to shape our society’s cultural self-understanding to
this day. A central characteristic of Pop Art was the dialogue between
design and art, which is now being explored in “Pop Art Design” at the
Vitra Design Museum as the first-ever comprehensive exhibition on the
topic.
