Comprehensive and colorful,
First, an admission: I judge books about pop art mainly by the pictures. And by that measure, this book offers one of the broadest and most pleasing collection of pop art pieces to be found between two covers. The large 9-1/2″ x 12″ format allows for excellent reproduction of the art with ample detail. The vast majority of the photos are in color, and the few that aren’t don’t suffer greatly for it.
But even though I’m a pictures-first kind of guy, the supporting text has to be informational and relevant. Again, by this measure, this book delivers. The text by Osterwold is lucid and perceptive, without being overly-academic (which is the downfall of many a pop art book). The translation from German was done expertly, for it reads well in English without any obvious awkwardness in style.
Prior to this book, the best overall historical discussion of the subject was found in Lucy Lippard’s _Pop Art_ (also available on Amazon), first published in the early 70s and reprinted in 1985. That book remains a worthy addition to any pop art aficionado’s library, but if you’re only looking for one book as a general treatment of the subject, Osterwold’s is the one to get.

|A Coffee Table Book Masquerading as a Work of Academia,
While the works of art reproduced in this book are numerous and colorful, the accompanying text is not very useful for anybody looking for an actual resource on the subject of pop-art. Sure, the book reads like a historical account and a scholarly analysis of the genre, but after about 20 or 30 pages it becomes clear that the typo-ridden text is moving in circles, finding new ways to repeat the same arguments page after page. Many of the artworks printed in the book are never discussed in the text, and several of the works discussed in the text are not pictured in the book. Buy this if you’re looking for a coffee table book, not if you’re trying to do research.

|Great for beginners!,
I have used this book for several years now. I have a degree in Art History and Art Education. I think this book is a great start for beginners or for those who just want to know a little more about art. I found the book very helpful for most of my high school students. As a matter of fact, two years ago I started using this book as a text book for the art History portion of our program. We use the book as a basis of study from which we delve into the historical events of the time. We then use these as a spring board. My students create projects to experience the different art of these eras. The book is written simply so that they can understand and throws in some humor here and there to keep it interesting. My only wish is that it came in a hard cover edition, as i have to keep replacing my copy I teach from!
