The artwork titled “Shriek” was created by James Rosenquist in 1986 and is part of the Pop Art movement. It falls under the genre of figurative art.
The artwork presents a vibrant blend of colors and imagery that reflects the essence of Pop Art, characterized by its bold and dynamic visuals. The composition includes vivid floral elements juxtaposed with abstract forms that suggest human features and expressions. The background is a striking red, which contrasts with the light tones of the flowers and abstract shapes. This piece encapsulates Rosenquist’s unique ability to merge figurative elements with an energetic, almost chaotic, aesthetic that captures the viewer’s attention and evokes a sense of movement and intensity.
