Artist

Styles

from 11 Pop Artists, Vol I // Circles of Confusion by James Rosenquist, created in 1965, is a vibrant screenprint filled with soft, overlapping circular forms in a lively palette of pinks, greens, oranges, and purples. The composition features layers of blurred, translucent circles, interspersed with occasional clear white dots and small GE (General Electric) logos, adding a subtle commercial reference. The hazy and almost dreamlike quality of the circles evokes the effect of out-of-focus lights, creating a sense of depth and immersion. This work exemplifies Rosenquist’s fascination with pop culture and consumer imagery, blending the aesthetics of advertising with abstract art. The scattered and diffused circles invite viewers to experience a sensation of visual confusion and intrigue, aligning with the title's reference to a lack of clarity. Circles of Confusion captures the essence of the 1960s pop art movement with its playful yet contemplative style.

What is Hyper-realism?

What is Hyper-realism?

Hyperrealism is a genre of sculpture and painting that closely resembles high-resolution photographs. It is an evolution of Photorealism and is often applied to an independent art style or movement that became prominent in Europe and the United States in the early 2000s. Hyperrealist artists focus on extreme detail and precision, creating works that are often indistinguishable from real-life images.
