Funk art is an art movement inspired by popular culture that used an unlikely mixture of materials and techniques, including found objects. It was a reaction against the nonobjectivity of
abstract expressionism. The movement’s name is derived from the musical term ‘
funky’, describing the passionate, sensuous, and quirky. It was a popular art form in the
1960s and
1970s, mainly in the United States. Funk artists treated their work with humour, confrontation, baudiness and autobiographical references. They sought to reintroduce social responsibility into contemporary art.
