A three-volume edition of screenprints and lithographs (with collage additions) by John Wesley that advertises and honors eleven Pop artists by turning commercial graphics into an art object.
A flat, traffic‑cone orange cover is punctuated by two blunt purple graphics—a circled “11” and a triangular badge reading “POP Artists”—like a billboard pared down to a single bold slogan.
As an editioned object that looks and reads like packaging or an exhibition catalogue, it exemplifies Pop Art’s move to appropriate mass‑media design and to blur the line between commercial imagery and fine art.
