Description: Culture has replaced nature as subject matter for many 20th- century artists. Art critic Robert Hughes sees the American-born Pop Art movement of the 1960's as a reaction against domination by the media, mass production, materialism and bad taste. Focuses on the works of Johns, Warhol, Rauschenberg, Lichtenstein and Oldenburg, contending that despite their talents, Pop Art couldn't compete with the billboards, neon and TV of real life.
