The McNay presents hemispheric vision of Pop art with Pop América, 1965-1975
The McNay Art Museum presents Pop América, 1965–1975, a groundbreaking, expansive approach to international Pop art. Co-organized by the McNay and the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, this pioneering exhibition crosses American borders and positions artists from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, and Puerto Rico alongside U.S. Pop art icons such as Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. Pop América opens to the public on October 4, 2018, and is on view through January 13, 2019. “The McNay is deeply honored to partner with the Nasher Museum on this inclusive—and historically accurate—account of Pan-American Pop art,” said Richard Aste, McNay Director. “The Museum is committed to expanding the canon of modern art history by making room for those voices (here, Latin American voices) who were always there but consistently overlooked by U.S.-focused scholars and museum professionals.
