I think, POP ART is a great art movement because I can feel a passion of artist from this art. It is made to create an emotion, comment or a thought from the viewer. Even comments such as "pop art is rubbish" is still a comment and people are talking about it and voicing their opinions. Talking and voicing own opinion means that people understand and feel from that arts. So I think, It is a really living art.
