"Pop Shop 1" - opened a pop shop in 1986 in which he sold T-shirts, posters, and other items.

Basquiat pieces

"Hollywood Africans " "Irony of Negro Policemen" "Flexible (1982)" this is not just any figure, but one of African ethnicity and proud heritage a clear reference to Basquiat's own identity "SAMO Graffiti" Al Diaz and Basquiat chose to sever their artistic collaboration, SAMO, with this three-word announcement. Carried out at various cites as a piece of graffiti art, the phrase surfaced repeatedly on gritty buildings throughout Lower Manhattan. At one time a sign of trespassing and vandalism, graffiti in the hands of Diaz and Basquiat became a tool of artistic "branding"; repeated here and there throughout the billboard-dotted city, "SAMO is Dead" slowly took on the status of a corporate mantra

Jean-Michel Basquiat

Born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1960. His mother was of Puerto Rican heritage, and his father a Haitian immigrant. Basquiat's art was fundamentally rooted in the 1970s, New York City-based graffiti movement. In 1972, he and an artist friend, Al Diaz, started spray-painting buildings in Lower Manhattan. In his short and largely troubled life, Jean-Michel Basquiat came to play an important and historic role in the rise of Punk Art and Neo-Expressionism in the New York art scene. Basquiat's work is one of the few examples of how an early 1980s American Punk, or graffiti-based and counter-cultural practice could become a fully recognized, critically embraced and popularly celebrated artistic phenomenon. Basquiat very skillfully and purposefully brought together in his art a host of disparate traditions, practices, and styles to create a unique kind of visual collage, one deriving, in part, from his urban origins, and in another a more distant, African-Caribbean heritage.

"According to What" Jasper Johns

Created in 1964 , combination of brushwork, sculptures, and silk screens on six connected canvases that measures 7 X 16 ft. Philadelphia museum of Art. Huge piece with so much going on. Looks sloppy and childish in some areas. Category of abstraction- which comments on the "rules of art" he's trying to say that he doesn't care about the "rules" when it comes to art and tells us that society is judging the meaning of art. Explores geometry which is not viewed as typical art. The rules of art "according to who?" and "according to what" Title communicates message effectively. Questioning what art is and who gets to choose what it means. According to What, Johns brings together objects not typically combined, but that look good together, and in doing so forces the viewer to think and to question what art is. Johns not only combines these elements, he also deconstructs and destroys them. Nothing is neat and perfect. Johns closes off traditional thinking and opens up new ways of thinking. According to what is art when traditional methods of judgment are destroyed and combined with new techniques? "According to what" is art.

Feminist Pieces

The Dinner Party , Judy Chicago, is still celebrated today because of the effect it has on people. The Dinner Party is a piece constructed of a table set for 39 women that played major roles in history and art. Each table setting is decorated with designs to celebrate women and their sexuality, example butterflies. It worked to rediscover lost role models for women, rewriting the past that had previously only included male voices. Barbara Kruger : "I Shop, Therefore I Am" - depicts a phrase placed over a photographic image from a newspaper or magazine. The slogan in this work refers to images of women in the media, specifically product advertisements designed for women, which are usually created by men. It is a reminder that most of the media that is geared toward women is based on men's assumptions about women's desires, lives, and ideals, interrogating the belief that women only need material objects to feel happy and that men can keep them under their control by those means. Kruger's work is accessible and direct, and was incredibly influential among the artists of the 1980s.

Botero Pieces

The inflated proportions of his figures, including those in Presidential Family (1967), suggest an element of political satire, and are depicted using flat, bright color and prominently outlined forms—a nod to Latin-American folk art. And while his work includes still-lifes and landscapes, Botero has typically concentrated on his emblematic situational portraiture. " THe presidential Family" "Mona Lisa Age twelve" "Rubens and His Wife"

Fernando Botero

a Colombian artist known for creating bloated, oversized depictions of people, animals and elements of the natural world.Throughout the 1950s, Botero experimented with proportion and size, and he began developing his trademark style—round, bloated humans and animals—after he moved to New York City in 1960

Feminist Art Movement

emerged in the late 1960s and sought to rewrite a falsely male-dominated art history as well as change the contemporary world. , the goal of Feminist art was to influence cultural attitudes and transform stereotypes. Feminist art created opportunities and spaces that previously did not exist for women and minority artists
