The economic climate during the 1960s significantly influenced Andy Warhol’s artistic development. As the country transitioned into a more consumer-driven society, Warhol began to explore themes related to mass production and consumer culture. His work in advertising and commercial art laid a foundation for his iconic pieces, echoing the visual aesthetics of pop art. The proliferation of media and advertising during this era inspired him to replicate images of celebrities and everyday products, blurring the lines between art and commerce. Warhol’s adaptability to cultural shifts made his work a defining representation of modern artistic expression.
