  This is the difference between Classical and Pop art.

• bdb  Mar 21st 2009 at 04:46 pm  #2174

  Bad example. Those are completely different styles, and cannot be compared.

  Da Vinci and Warhol dunno, they're both pretty good.

  sooo..Europe has Great Art and the USA is a Banana Republic?

• um hi  May 19th 2009 at 09:04 pm  #7016

  it's not that people don't get what the picture's saying. The comparison just sucks. Da Vinci was a renaissance painter, and andy warhol was definitely pop art. Plus, in europe, the Mona Lisa sits in the Louvre all day, behind glass you have to pay >$10 to see. andy warhol's art is still on that campbell's soup can label in every food store in America.

  in my opinion that's precisely why the comparison works

• critic  May 20th 2009 at 08:14 pm  #7079

  Warhol wasn't an artist, he was a celebrity.

• Hmmm  May 23rd 2009 at 10:57 am  #7313

  WHO FUCKING CARES! It is just art. Art fags should die.

  The main difference between europe and europe? fail moronail.

• lobsterrodeo  Dec 2nd 2009 at 07:37 am  #37920

  personally, if i had to choose, i'd rather lose the mona lisa than the velvet underground. i'm just saying. one is way overrated and (at the risk of being a hipster) one is way underrated.

  i know this pic is just about the art btw...

  This comparison attempts to highlight the differences between Europe and America by showing two iconic pieces of art from each respective culture.

  On one level, The Mona Lisa points to Europe's old and established aesthetic heritage and reverence for traditional art forms. On another level, it stands for the pervasiveness of class in European society. The Mona Lisa, a commissioned painting of a wealthy lady, suggests that the only things worth depicting in art are of the upper class.

  The Warhol print, on the other hand, takes a banana, something traditionally thought to be unworthy of art, and positions it as an artistic object. This classically post-modern move questions adherence to aesthetic tradition. It suggests that anything, no matter how "unsophisticated" is worthy of the same artistic status as the Mona Lisa. This attitude could be said to exemplify America, whose culture rejects class boundaries but tends towards 'simpler' forms of expression.

  Kinda is lame, since the americas weren't even around during the time that picture was created...

  warhol's parents were slovakian or something if i'm not mistaken
