It's Old But It's In
Pop ART Means..
Pop art is a visual art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s in Britain and in the late 1950s in the United States. Pop art challenged tradition by asserting that an artist's use of the mass-produced visual commodities of popular culture is contiguous with the perspective of fine art. Pop removes the material from its context and isolates the object, or combines it with other objects, for contemplation.The concept of pop art refers not as much to the art itself as to the attitudes that led to it.
Pop art is an art movement of the twentieth century. Characterized by themes and techniques drawn from popular mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane cultural objects, pop art is widely interpreted as a reaction to the then-dominant ideas of abstract expressionism, as well as an expansion upon them.Pop art, aimed to employ images of popular as opposed to elitist culture in art, emphasizing the banal or kitschy elements of any given culture, most often through the use of irony. It is also associated with the artists' use of mechanical means of reproduction or rendering techniques.
Much of pop art is considered incongruent, as the conceptual practices that are often used make it difficult for some to readily comprehend. Pop art and minimalism are considered to be the last Modern Art movements and thus the precursors to postmodern art, or some of the earliest examples of Postmodern Art themselves.
Pop art often takes as its imagery that which is currently in use in advertising.Campbell's Soup Cans labels, by Andy Warhol. Even the labeling on the shipping carton containing retail items has been used as subject matter in pop art. Consider Warhol's Campbell's Tomato Juice Box 1964, or his Brillo Soap Box sculptures.Pop ART Camera

SUNDAY MEANS SWEAT
I almost crazy with this photosession day. OHM*G!! gw sama temen-temen gw, (Rere, Chika, sama Lia) mulai berputar-putar mencari spot yang oke itu. we're so happy, finally found that place.tapi,sayang seribu sayang. gw nyaris mati dan sakit jiwa di tempat itu (lebay!). you should know because this damn global warming, yang biasanya panasnya tidak membunuh ini sangat-sangat mematikan (lebay lagi deh yaa..) finally, gw harus 'tanning' ditempat yang gersang itu. well, nggak tanning juga ya karena kulit gw-pun tidak putih bagaikan susu. HAHAHH.. tapi selama sessi foto berlangsung, gw sudah dibuat gila dengan terik matahari yang sangat dan terlalu menyengat. rasanya mau pulang aja terus tidur daripada harus berjemur bagaikan pakaian di teriknya matahari. you should know I took a picture at 9.46 AM in the morn'. God's really great, He made a beautiful SUN which can kill you softly. HIAAHHH.. dan setelah kita menyelesaikan sessi foto 1, kita mulai melarikan diri untuk 'ngadem' sambil meneguk minuman yang segaaaaarrr di MCD. after that, we should continue the show. jalanlah kita para wanita tanpa lelaki ke sebuah tempat terpendam itu. muter sana sini. bolak balik macam orang beres aja. sebenernya gw cukup puas di sessi 2, tapi sayangnya gw tidak bisa mengambil banyak foto karena batre kamera gw HABIS. hiaaattt!! mungkin karena gw share tu batre ke temen gw yang emang batre kameranya udah mati duluan, udah gitu emang batre kamera gw selalu standby dan belum di charger selama berhari-hari. HAPPY!! here they are some picture that I took on SUNDAY MEANS HOT SO IT'S GETTING SWEAT!!
sebenernya masih ada satu model lagi, tapi fotonya belum gw resize dan gw retouch. hihii.. seneng banget walaupun ada hal yang menyebalkannya juga. HAHAHA..
PIECES by SUM 41 Lyrics
But nothing was worth it
I don’t believe it makes me real
I’d thought it’d be easy
But no on believes me
I meant all the things that I said
If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own
This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I don’t know how it got so bad
Sometimes it’s so crazy that nothing could save me
But it’s the only thing that I have
If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own
(On my own!)
I tried to be perfect
It just wasn’t worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
It’s hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along
If you believe it’s in my soul
I’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I’m better off on my own
