Love is in the air! Our class this week was on Valentines Day. I chose three pop artists for us to explore. These three artists, Keith Haring, Andy Warhol and Jim Dine, all used hearts in their artwork. We discussed what "pop art" means and how a simple heart, mass produced in popular culture, can be elevated to "high art".
It was interesting to discuss Andy Warhol's heart print with the class. Our conversation diverged into careers that an artist can have, such as scientific illustrator.
