questions
Hopkins starts off the "Pop and Politics" section by the luxuriation exemplified in a Wesselmann painting about the Kennedy era and how in this and other paintings dealing with notions of bounty there are hints at various social inequalities and empty promises made by politicians. This type of art sides closely with the art of the political cartoon, so I wonder what the boundary is between the two. Is this kind of pop art just political or social newspaper cartoons in technicolor?
