Jack Gage is an American artist. He was largely inspired by the sixties. Artistically, the decade began with the twin movements of Pop and Minimalism that emerged side by side. On one hand, Pop defended the imagery of mainstream and mass media, and of products and consumerism. The artwork by artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Tom Wesselmann and Claes Oldenburg is inspired by the popular culture of the rapidly developing capitalism of the United States, with things like advertising, comic books and ideas about celebrity culture central. visual cues. A parallel movement developed on the West Coast in California - a kind that also related to language in art, and is seen as the first flowering of conceptual art. Minimalism developed a visual language devoid of external references, solely focused on line, color and geometric form as important components of both painting and sculpture. The leading figures of Minimalism were Frank Stella, Donald Judd and Agnes Martin. Pop Art was a prominent offshoot of Minimalism, a discipline that gained notoriety through the work of artists such as Victor Vasarely and Bridget Riley. Worldwide many artistic movements resonated with the creative concerns of the aforementioned movements, often with regional fortes and nuance. In Italy, Lucio Fontana and Piero Manzoni founded Spatialism, and in Germany the Zero group led by Gunter Uecker adopted similar ideas. The influential school of existentialist philosophy was an important source of creativity for artists, with artists such as Francis Bacon and Alberto Giacometti worldwide known for their distinctive approaches to the human form and the anxiety associated with the human condition.
