POP GOES THE EASEL 1962
Pop Goes the Easel focuses on four British pop artists: Peter Blake, Peter Philips, Pauline Boty and Derek Boshier. (In 1967 Peter Blake designed the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band LP cover.) This striking film captures the excitement and energy of the pioneering young Pop artists. In the film, a 29-year old Peter Blake explores his passion for pop icons, such as Elvis, Fabian, Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot. Pauline Boty, Britain’s great female pop art painter, performs in a short dramatic dream piece. Look for the wild "twist" session to Clay Cole's "Twist Around the Clock."
