P o P !

December 2021 - March 2022

Vibrant, humorous, nostalgic, and revealing -- this body of work highlights Slingshot artists inspired and influenced by popular culture.

Pop art challenged divisions between high and low by appropriating the style and production methods of 'pulp art' media like comics, cartoons, and advertising to expand our notions of painting and contemporary art. The work of these artists shares a similar graphic style and identifiable 'pulp' subjects that complicate our simple expectations of what is familiar. Giving icons and tropes another look; renewed personality and new opportunities for meaning.
