Art pop is a loosely-defined style of pop music which reflects an affinity with practices in areas of non-musical art, such as pop art, cinema, avant-garde literature, fine art, art school studies, and fashion. Artists draw on the collapsed boundary between high and low culture while moving away from the conventions of rock music and traditional pop audiences. Central to some purveyors of the style are explorations of pop as commercial art or notions of artifice, style, or irony.
