Inspired by iconic pop art, Pop-Tarts created the Pop(T)Art Gallery Experience featuring the work of food artist Nathan Wyburn. While Andy Warhol’s pop art portrait of Marilyn Monroe was originally produced as part of a silkscreen painting series, Wyburn paid homage to the famous work of art by using over 120 toaster pastries to recreate the face of the film star.
At the pop-up gallery in London, visitors can also see other works of art created to celebrate Pop-Tarts’ 60th anniversary, including a recreation of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa made from edible toaster pastry rectangles. The experience as a whole brings attention to the fact that Pop-Tarts were named after the pop art movement.
