Taking Andy Warhol's notorious provocation as a starting point, "Good business is the best art." it explained the important issues raised by the exhibition. All my knowledge about pop art is its popular and commercial characteristics. It is really one of the most accessible art form historically by public. A large number of pop art works can be copied, sold easily, due to Artist's creative purposes are based on a high market acceptability. As an result, pop art raised a debating point: can Art be equated with normal life?
In the exhibition Tate Modern collected some of the well-known Pop Art artists’ work, includes Andy Warhol, Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami and so on. visually, It shown a brief history of Pop Art. I got an up close and personal look at the art history and craftsmanship, there are three representative artists strongly impressed me with their works, they are Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons and Takashi Murakami. To begin with, Andy Warhol as one of the most influential American artists really push pop art onto the top. He created a completely revolutionary method of making art work, directly printed photos onto the canvas such like a serious of celebrity portraits. Certainly Warhol goes on an extraordinary exploration the relationship of art and business in morden society. One of the room The Gems, which present the celebrity culture in the disco culture ages. And meanwhile, Warhol turned himself into a brand, also Filmmaker, Commercial illustrator, Music producer, Writer, Fashion model.
The next artist Jeff Koons. I have saw his Popeye series exhibition before in Serpentine Gallery. I really like his inflatable toys which typically used by children, I engaged with his works and that remind me of my childhood. Koons has explored notions of consumerism, childhood and sexuality through cartoons which is brilliant. However his Made in Heaven series displayed in Tate modern noticed me the same question ‘Could art just show true portraiture?’

the third artist is Takashi Murakami. He and his Japanese company created vast number of attractive and accessible cartoon characters. His work combines both Eastern and Western culture, entertainment and art elements. While he worked with fashion brand as a artist that succeed and attracted most of the young generation.
On reflect thinking, Pop Art is a good example, making art engage the imagination of the average person. for this purpose,It has been an important journey for me in which I have developing my independent project and research. It has, however, been challenging at times. Moreover contemporary performance changes the way in developing deeper concepts and new technologies, both of which try to arouse audience’s curiosity and interest. As a result, public tends to become more involved. In my future work I will continually develop my idea of how performance convey dramatic time experience to audience that mirror their lifetime.
