Lowbrow art, also known as pop surrealism, is a movement that emerged in the late 20th century, characterized by its blend of popular culture and fine art. It often incorporates elements from comics, cartoons, and graffiti, challenging traditional artistic boundaries. Artists in this genre aim to make art accessible and relatable, often using humor and irony. This art form is typically created by self-taught artists and is often displayed in alternative spaces rather than conventional galleries. Notable figures in lowbrow art include Robert Williams and Mark Ryden, who have gained recognition for their unique styles and contributions to the movement.
