Pop art, as one of the greatest art movements of the 20th century, has had a significant impact on contemporary Chinese art. This article first revolves around Pop Art, providing a brief introduction to Pop Art and elucidating its main artistic features.Secondly, it depicts the first collision between pop art and Chinese art, which had a huge impact. Under this influence, Chinese artists began to continuously learn and absorb Western pop art, integrating their own concepts into it, and finally began to form pop art with Chinese characteristics. The two most important art schools are "political pop" and "cultural pop", Today, China has applied pop art as a visual language in multiple fields of life.The emergence of pop art has broken through traditional Chinese art forms, not only affecting the creative concepts and forms of artists, but also influencing contemporary Chinese art culture, inspiring the learning, imitation, integration, and creation of Western pop art. Chinese artists have absorbed and borrowed the visual language of New Pop Art, combined with their historical background, to form a Chinese style Pop Art, and created a visual language with Chinese Pop meaning. Through juxtaposition, weakening artistic techniques, and a tendency towards bright colors, the cultural connotation of Chinese Pop Art is ultimately reflected, providing new visual expressions for contemporary Chinese painting.
