Pop Art began in the late 1950s in Britain and early 1960s in New York as a reaction to Abstract Expressionism. Pop artists like Andy Warhol depicted everyday consumer images and popular culture in their work, using techniques like silkscreening, to comment on mass production and the relationship between art and consumerism. Andy Warhol's iconic Campbell's Soup Cans series from 1962 was one of the first works to use imagery from popular culture and mass production in fine art.
