Gagosian Gallery on Brittania Street is currently showing an exhibit called Pop Art is... to honor the fiftieth anniversary of pop art’s definition by Richard Hamilton.

The exhibit includes works by Richard Hamilton, Dennis Hopper, Roy Lichtenstein, Jeff Koons, Edward Ruscha, Claes Oldenburg and Richard Prince. It coincides with a major exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery called Pop Art Portraits on view through January 20, 2008.
