British pop artist Richard Hamilton dies at 89

Hamilton was often called the “Father of Pop Art,” a movement marked by its ironic and iconic use of pop-culture imagery.
He made his name in the 50s with “Just What Is It That Makes Today’s Homes So Different, So Appealing?” — a collage showing a naked couple in a product-strewn home.
His images were striking and often political, from Mick Jagger in handcuffs to Tony Blair as a cowboy.
The gallery said that Hamilton had been working on a major retrospective that will travel to Los Angeles, Philadelphia, London and Madrid in 2013-14.
He is survived by his wife, Rita Donagh, and son Rod.
