Stuart Davis' work inspired other artists with his idea's to do pop art as he was influenced by the modernism of that era.
His many influences were
Cubism
Jazz
Travel
Signs (Brightness/Neon)
and Brand Names
Many of which are seen throughout the pop art movement.
Another contributing factor was modern culture and the media, the pop art movement wanted to bring art back into the daily life of people and by using modern culture and the media this helped to do so.
The Pop Art Movement came about as a reaction against abstract painting which they found too sophisticated and elite, their comeback was humerous, witty art.
Advertisement is also an influence to pop art as its art people see everyday and what stands out to people.
To conclude this blog, Pop Art was created by artists taking things from everyday life and showing them in a new perspective this was then presented through advertisement, comics, the media and even movies.
Pop Art was considered one of the final 'modern art' movements and a pre-cursor to 'post-modern art.'
