May 2018: POP

Updated: Jun 25, 2018

Very excited that my POP ArtKnit cushions are featured in the shop at Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery, Exeter to support the V&A's first touring exhibition of Pop Art prints!

Pop Art in Print

‘Vibrant, sexy and very much of the moment, Pop Art reflected a fascination with the iconic status of celebrities and brands. Pop artists recognised the potential of prints to communicate ideas quickly and cheaply, creating art which both mirrored and critiqued the American Dream.

Drawing from the V&A's outstanding collection of Pop Art graphics, this is the V&A's first exhibition of Pop Art prints. Bringing together over 70 works by more than 30 artists, it offers a comprehensive and exciting view of artists working in this style from the 1960s to the early 2000s. Inspired by commercial graphics and popular culture, the movement generated an innovative and prolific culture of printmaking.’

Exhibition organised by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. View RAMM's exhibitions and events brochure

Location Information Name: Gallery 21 Address: RAMM Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery Queen St,  Exeter,  EX4 3RX

Books, prints and gifts celebrating Pop Art are available from the Shop at RAMM.

‘Have you seen the fantastic new range inspired by RAMM’s latest exhibition Pop Art in Print? This eclectic collection has everything! From books about famous Pop Artists to bright and bold jewellery, and 60s inspired accessories – and not forgetting cushions by our new artist maker Penny Burdett.’
