"Just What Is It That Makes Today's Homes So Different, So Appealing?" , 1956
150 x 120 cm (h x w)
Collage

Just what is it that makes today’s homes so different, so appealing? is considered the first prominent work of the POP Art movement. It is a collage depicting the interior of a home formed by cutouts from magazines. It includes contemporary Adam and Eve, surrounded by numerous elements of postwar consumerism and mass media culture. It features a considerable amount of ironic humor, including Adam covering his genitals with a massive lollipop rather than the traditional fig leaf. This humor parodies the consumerism of the mid-20th-century industrial and advertising boom.
