“This book is a social history of Pop art, a group portrait of both the artists and the people who made some of them rich and famous in just a few years, while setting in motion the drastically altered way art has been marketed and appreciated―in the monetary and aesthetic sense―up to the present day.” So begins Alice Goldfarb Marquis' lively, informative and entertaining account of one of the twentieth century's most flamboyant and influential art movements. Included in this group portrait are the famous: Roy Lichtenstein and his “Blam-Pow” comics panels, Andy Warhol, shy, shrewd and tough as nails, the power couple of Leo Castelli and Ileana Sonnabend; the infamous, such as the collector Robert Scull, who bought so heavily that his own dealer deemed him “vulgar”; and a variegated cast ranging from artists Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Indiana and James Rosenquist to pioneering dealer Ivan Karp, controversial curator Henry Geldzahler, media guru Marshall McLuhan, author Tom Wolfe and many, many others. While shelves of books have been written about Pop art, The Pop Revolution is the first to approach it not only as an aesthetic upheaval, but also as a bellwether for the social, cultural, economic and political changes affecting America and Europe in the late twentieth century. As Marquis notes, the figures involved in creating and promoting the movement “set off the ‘culture boom' of the 1960s, and were indispensable to the success, not only of Pop art, but of all the varied approaches to art that followed.” Rich in historical insights and unpublished information, The Pop Revolution is an extremely readable account of one of art's liveliest chapters.Award-winning journalist and historian Alice Goldfarb Marquis, who died in 2009, was a visiting scholar at the University of California at San Diego. Her previous books include Art Czar: The Rise and Fall of Clement Greenberg, Marcel Duchamp: The Bachelor Stripped Bare, Alfred H. Barr, Jr: Missionary for the Modern and The Art Biz.

This year has so far witnessed the publication of various good-quality books telling the story of how Pop Art became the dominant force on the American, or rather New York, art scene (to name but two, the autobiography of James Rosenquist and the biography of Leo Castelli). This particular book, written by the late Alice Goldfarb Marquis, draws from extensive interviews with actors of the pop art scene (the dealer Ivan Karp, right-hand man to Leo Castelli, Vincent Fremont, the man in charge of the Andy Warhol estate, etc...), from newspaper and magazine articles by famous art critics (Lawrence Alloway on the pro-side, Harold Rosenberg on the anti-side), to give an in-depth account of the social, economic and historical context of the inception and growth of the pop art movement. Many events are well-known already (the story of the notorious, albeit prescient, collector and taxi tycoon Robert Scull, or the discovery of Andy Warhol by Ivan Karp who introduced him to a reluctant Castelli), but the author's main quality is to be able to show how and why Pop Art is a direct consequence of the social and economic situation in the U.S. during the 1960's and also, that far from being a passing fad, it lasted well into the 21'st century to be able to be labeled a genuine revolution, much more than a mere fashion. An interesting and easy to read book.
