Does your office give the military camp feel? Determination, hard work, and excellence imbibed in everyone's spirits. How will people think outside the box and brainstorm ideas working in those cubicles with dull, pale, and neutral walls?

Maybe all you need is the presence of a Pop Art piece in your office to excite, inspire, and rejuvenate the mind every time someone glances at it.

Why Pop Art?

Pop Art started as a historical art movement in the 1950s critical of the traditional artistic styles creating a new perspective inclined towards popular culture. Art reflecting humor, advertising, iconic movie posters, and logos became trendy.

You might have come across prominent Pop Art paintings like multicolored lips, the crying girl, or some crazy cartoon illustrations.Pop Art makes a statement with bright, vibrant colors and graphic imagery in any space, creating some amazing paintings

However, the art form isn't only about bold colors or cartoons; it is also about redefining and reinventing familiar notions. Pop Art fills the void in your working space and may help boost your productivity. 

It is cheap, and you can easily incorporate the art form in your office. Remember, there are no rules by which you need to abide. So, don't limit yourself and openly express. If you are wondering how to redesign your office with Pop art paintings, here are some suggestions. 

Mismatching is the key.

In general, art describes your personality or reminds you of your favorite things. Pick a theme for your office to work on a design. If yours is a music company, you can hang portraits of a guitar, music artist filled with beautiful and vibrant colors. 

Similarly, give an energetic and quirky vibe to your walls by choosing contrasting colors. Remember,for your pop art to stand out, it should not match the color of the walls. The mainstream colors used in pop art like yellow, blue, and red are cool, but what's better than playing with different colors. 

However,if you do not prefer loud interiors, you can choose a monochrome theme by incorporating pop art paintings.  

Wall Paintings

Don't optical illusions pull you out of monotony into an imaginary world? It plays with your mind. You can create crazy optical illusions on your wall with unique colors and patterns. Lighting and interior décor can enhance the look of the optical illusions. Aren't you a fan of optical illusions?

In that scenario, you also have the conventional option of painting your walls based on pop art. You can choose painting your favorite icons or reinvent simple objects with bold colors. Don't worry about pop art remaining on your walls permanently; you won't get bored soon.

If painting your walls feels like much work, you can play it cool with fantastic artwork wallpapers. You have many choices to look for inspiration, starting from the fascinating works of Richard Hamilton to Peter Phillips. 

How about wallpapers related to graphics and industrial images? Incorporating pop art in your office is up to your choices; you can go overboard, as there is nothing like "normal." It pretty much sounds like a plan for you to go crazy. 

Portraits and Prints of Drama

In case you are renting your office, painting walls is out of the question. You can still get the desired look by hanging pop art portraits and prints in your office. They are portable just in case you want to shift them to another location, saving your bucks. 

Paintings and prints are usually common sources of pop art because they are easily accessible and manageable. You can go gaga over choosing pop art portraits of your idols, interests, and predominantly related to your work.  For example, a pop art piece hung against the brick walls under industrial décor makes for an appealing look. 

If you want to create a magnificent look, you can place repetitive portraits of different styles in chronological order. You can also become a pop artist by taking prints of your desired pop art and placing them wherever you like. 

Make sure you frame the prints for a professional look in your office. Art resonates with thoughts, so wisely choose what to put up on your walls.

Induce humor

How about some funny comic posters to brighten your mood whenever you are overloaded with work or feeling low? Yes, pop art to soothe you.You can take inspiration from Roy Lichtenstein, who is recognized for his comic-book themed paintings. 

You can also re-energize your office and create a fun space by incorporating pop art portraits of cartoons. Make a statement with wry, funny, and satirical posters. You can purchase large wall paintings online to make your workspace come alive with colors. 

Say it through words.

Don't we all need some motivation and soothing words to work? Design encouraging quotes based on pop art to say it out loud and clear. It reflects positivity in the working space. Additionally, unique color combinations of the words will grab everyone's attention. You can choose interesting quotes and poetry to put up in your office.

Conclusion

You do not have to be tied down by realism in pop art because it is more about "pop."Vivid colors portray different thoughts and emotions. Pop art designers use new materials like polyester, acrylic, and foam rubber to produce paintings. 

However, plastic is usually preferred while creating the art form. Pop art isn't confined to paintings; you can incorporate elements of Pop art into furniture, artifacts, and décor. Go out of your comfort zone and renovate your office based on the abovementioned suggestions.

LIGHT YEARS AWAY
SATURDAY, JUNE 24 – FRIDAY, JULY 21, 2017
OPENING RECEPTION: SATURDAY, JUNE 24 – 7 TO 10PM

Index Art Center is pleased to present “Light Years Away,” a group exhibition of artwork informed by celestial mapping including the themes of star navigation, star cartography, scale of the Universe, orbits of celestial bodies, the search for habitable planets and/or extraterrestrial life, time dilation, and other matters addressing the exploration of our universe via charts, maps, diagrams, and other visual documentation meant to interpret our understanding of the geography of space in the broadest interpretation of this subject matter. Curated by Wavelength, a collaborative project by Gianluca Bianchino and Jeanne Brasile, their curatorial model considers phenomenological art informed by scientific principles. They are interested in interpreting art as a metaphysical space to discuss ideas. The exhibition brings together multi-media installations, sculpture, drawing and paintings are sympathetic to their curatorial philosophy. Featured artists include Pasquale Cuppari, Dahlia Elsayed, Amber Heaton, Heejung Kim, Heather Merckle, Julia Oldham, Really Large Numbers and Chad Stayrook.

“Beyond creating imagery, the works are unified through the artists’ desire to visualize cosmological phenomena, depict quasi-diagrammatical explanations of scientific data, or present complex ideas in an easily understood format,” noted Wavelength’s curatorial team. Chad Stayrook’s Final Frontier playfully “explains” the making of a constellation, while Amber Heaton charts the natural light and movement of the sun and the moon for a year in her installation and Heejung Kim explores the spiritual aspects of the night sky. Viewers will be situated in a series of conversations about stellar wonders in an immersive environment.
