Pop Art

Pop artists strove for straightforwardness in the artwork, using primary colours and imagery from popular and mass culture such as comic books, advertising and mundane mass produced objects. Andy Warhol is one of the most famous pop art in the world. His work was based on the idea that everyone has their fifteen minutes of fame.

Many other Irish Pop artists followed in Warhol's footsteps, creating pieces that were both instantly recognizable and visually stunning. Some of the most popular pieces of Irish Pop art include a giant green head by Louis Le Brocquy, a portrait of Éamon de Valera made up of thousands of postage stamps and a painting of a Dublin pub interior by Patrick Swift.
