Why did the pop art movement occur?

Pop art and op-art were popular art movements in the 1960's. Pop art and Op art were separate art movements but the public mixed them, much to the annoyance of the founding artists. The term Op-art was first coined by Time magazine. It was typified by the dramatic, trick-optic effects of line and contrasting areas of colour. Fashion Designers picked up these art trends and modified them for use in their clothing designs. Courreges was influenced by the Op-art movement. Op art was the optical trick of contrasting areas of line and colour. Chain stores stocked black and white themed clothes and boots, coats and hats in PVC and other artificial materials. The look was effective but too much could cause headaches. In 1961 Andy Warhol's Pop art paintings "Advertisement," 1960, "Little King," 1960, "Superman," 1960, "Saturday's Popeye," 1960 were used in the window displays of the Bonwit Teller department Store in New York.

Is a giclee better than a serigraph?

There is an entirely different process used in making each type of image. A lithograph is a very high quality machine printed image made by using a 4 color separation process much like how the covers of any color magazine is printed.

A Serigraph is a silk screened image. With a Serigraph the original oil painting is scanned and separated digitally into each and every color found in the original. A separate silk screen is created for each and every color that was scanned. There are usually from 80 to 130 individual colors in the majority of some Serigraphs.

Each silk screen is precisely placed over the Serigraph paper, and then by hand squeegee, paint for a specific color is applied. This single application of one paint color must then dry for at least 24 to 48 hours before the next color paint can be applied.

It can take a Serographer up to 6 months to produce 1 run of as many as 500 Serigraphs of the same image.

Serigraphs are also produced in much smaller numbers than Lithographs, and they are as costly to produce, and as close to the actual original painting as you can possibly get.

There is a very noticeable difference in the high quality of a Serigraph (technically original art) when compared to a Lithograph (reproduction).

Is marble easy to sculpt?

It would depend on the limestone!

"Freestone" limestone (masons' term) is fairly soft, fine-grained and homogenous so can be cut into smooth faces and fine details but cannot be polished very highly. Typically, it is from Jurassic deposits: e.g. Portland Stone (S. England) and Caen Stone (NW France).

The original Mason-Dixon Line marker stones are of Portland Stone thanks to the Penn (as in ~sylvania) family's home links.

There is a bed found on Portland, called "Roach", which is hard, crystalline limestone riddled with the open moulds of small shells. These cavities give it a spnge-like texture, rendering it unsuitable for carving although is used in its own right for decorative work. In the past it was used for semi-ashlar civil- & military- engineering masonry.

Other limestones such as most of those from the Carboniferous, are very tough and crystalline, often shot through with calcite veins, so not amenable to fine stonework and sculptural uses.

In all limestone formations, some units can be thin and flaggy, useful as floor or walling stone, or as roofing "tiles", but little else.

Marble (in its geological sense) is metamorphosed from limestone, and is hard and finely-crystalline calcium carbonate. The higher the metamorphism heat and pressure the purer the mineral aas the original organic content has been driven out of the matrix. Loses its original bedding in the process. Can be cut in all directions and takes a high polish.

Who created the first collage?

Pablo Picasso, with his friend Georges Braque began working with collage at the same time and coined the term in the beginning of the 20th century.

Are all statues made of marble?

Marble is not a color, but rather a type of rock. The color of the sculptures are due to the natural colors, shades, and patterns in the rock.

The reality is that the Greek marble works were brightly painted in reds, blues etc - the Greeks lived in a riot of colour, but this has disappeared over the centuries since. Some show traces of their former glory, but are hard to detect. This was first discovered in a 1920s excavation in a ravine at the back of the Acropolis in Athens which uncovered the statues of the gods broken up by the Persians in 480 BCE. After the Persians were driven off, the Athenians wondered what to do with the broken gods, and put them in the ravine waiting for the gods to tell them what to do. They became covered over and waited there for nearly two and a half thousand years, and revealed the real nature of Greek art, which was not the bland marble we imagined it to be.
