The artwork, titled “Ada Ada,” is an oil on linen painting created by Alex Katz in 1959. It belongs to the Pop Art movement and is categorized within the genre of portraiture.
The artwork presents two almost identical, full-length figures of a woman standing side by side. Each figure is depicted with a composed expression and their arms crossed over their chests. The women wear long, dark blue dresses that contrast vividly with the orange tones of their skin and the muted background. The simplicity and boldness of the figures’ attire and posture highlight the stylistic elements characteristic of Pop Art, with an emphasis on flat, solid colors and clear outlines.
