Modern Art and Pop Art are some of today's most coveted styles of art according to collectors and novices who are interested in reprints that they can hang on the walls of their homes and offices. These two types of art have become the favorite choice for many art collectors and people who just love art and enjoy using these attractive pieces decorating their homes or offices.

Since the rigorous Modern Art movement during the late nineteenth century, many people have fallen in love with and have respected the Modern Art pieces of famous artists such as Henri de Toulouse Lautrec, Paul Cezanne, Georges Seurat, and Vincent van Gough. Skipping along the edge of reality and the morals of that era, these artists used experimentation to create art in a fresh, exciting way.

Continuing to support the Modern Art movement in the early twentieth century, Henri Matisse, Andrew Derain, and Maurice de Vlaminck used bright, multi-colored landscapes, bold shapes, and created paintings that represented an alternate reality artistic Paris. Matisse took lead in leaning towards the abstract side of Modern Art, rather than realism ...
... and painted pieces that would extract emotion from those who viewed his pieces such as joy, sadness, regret, etc.

Pablo Picasso, who was easily one of the most famous artists of the Modern Art era was influenced into the Modern Art culture early on and later, he experimented with an idea by Cezanne. Cezanne promoted the theory of Cubism, which stated that all nature could be depicted using only spheres, cones and cubes. One piece in particular, "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon", (1907) was a spectacular creation by Picasso. This particular picture showed several prostitutes in a brothel that looked something like wild animals or strange creatures wearing tribal masks rather than women. The innovation he used in that painting led to further development of the Modern Art, Cubism.

During the 1950's, Pop Art surfaced in the United Kingdom as a retort to Modern Art. The movement crossed into the 1960's, fueled by wild, dramatic colors, bold lines, and true-to-reality interpretations of drugs, life, and culture.

Pop Art took reality into consideration and artists depicted their views on life through these pieces and portrayed media and life events. Pop Art artists poked fun at culture and turned modern commodities into sardonic commentaries. Alongside Warhol, Pop Art's artists included Peter Max, Jasper Johns, David Hockney, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg and Robert Rauschenberg, and many others.

Despite Pop Art being created as a result of Modern Art, most art collectors take pride in collecting both styles of art, and both are highly sought after not only by collectors, but individuals and Galleries. But in order to get the best pieces, art collectors and art lovers must do the research needed in order to get the real pieces and not reprints or fake ones. Sure, researching into the origins of any particular piece of art and studying the styles of certain artists takes time but it is something you need to do in order to make sure that you are getting is the real deal and not a fake.
