Module 12: Video Review

I chose the videos “Abstract Expressionism and Pop: Art of the ‘50s and ‘60s” and “Andy Warhol: Images of an Image”. I selected these videos because I am interested in learning more about Abstract, Pop Art, and artists such as Andy Warhol.

The video “Abstract Expressionism and Pop: Art of the ‘50s and ‘60s” is about how Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art began. The video shows examples of art from several artists that are in the category of Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art.  

The video “Andy Warhol: Images of an Image” is about Andy Warhol and his works, and his influence in the world of art. Andy Warhol is an important artist because of his unique style and use of images.  

The first video is related to the reading on Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art which were briefly discussed in the textbook on Chapter 22. Also, the second video is related to the section of the reading about Andy Warhol.

The first video adds more in-depth information on how Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art have developed during the Sixties and Seventies. On the other hand, the second video provides more in-depth information on Andy Warhol’s life and contributions to the art world, along with more examples of his art.
