“Pop Culture Tells Its Story”

The theme is dedicated to Pop Culture, a sociocultural phenomenon that developed in the post-war period and became established between the 1950s and 1960s, turning into a shared language across different fields such as art, music, cinema, fashion and comics.


Pop Culture in the visual arts

Pop Culture in music

In the musical landscape, Pop Culture has had a decisive impact on styles and collective imagination. Among the most representative figures are Freddie Mercury, The Beatles, Michael Jackson and Domenico Modugno.


Cinema, entertainment and popular culture

In cinema and entertainment, Pop Culture has been expressed through personalities who helped define new narrative and visual languages. These include Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Federico Fellini, Sophia Loren and Totò.


Fashion and comics

Fashion and comics are also part of the story of Pop Culture. In these fields, figures such as Coco Chanel, Giorgio Armani and Stan Lee stand out for their contribution to internationally recognisable aesthetics and narratives.
