Monitor
Pop Goes the Easel
S5 • E13 Mar 25, 1962
A fortnightly magazine of the arts.
A group of four young artists, who between them have won critical acclaim, exhibition prizes, and Arts Council awards, are among those who have turned for subject-matter to the world of pop singers, pin-ups, space-men, wrestling, and the Twist. Monitor cameras spent an ordinary Saturday with them, from dawn to midnight.
The artists and their pictures:
Peter Blake, Siriol, she-devil of naked madness
Derek Boshier, I wonder what my Heroes think of the Space-race
Pauline Boty, Goodbye, cruel world
Peter Phillips, For Men Only starring MM and BB
Introduced and edited by Huw Wheldon.
