Amusement park art is a category of art that focuses on themes relating to themed roller coaster parks and amusement parks. These works are unique and entertaining. These thematic prints are often used in professional venues that cater to entertaining and theatrics, as well as households that are looking to liven up their decorative styles.
Like many thematic prints, amusement park art is based around activities and objects that are often featured in theme parks. This can include anything from advertisements, as seen in the theme park print 'Carnival' by Catherine Jones, to depictions of actual rides that are featured in amusement parks, like 'Boardwalk Colors' by Francis Livingston.
Ferris wheel photography is a common sight in this art category. These works are highly entertaining and are depicted in a variety of ways. Two examples of the diversity in this art category are seen in the amusement park photos 'Ferris Wheel, London' and 'Ferris Wheel- contrast black and white' by Marilu Windvand.
Roller coaster pictures are a highly popular element within theme park art that has been widely explored by modern artists. These works often emote a sense of excitement and vibrancy. These works of amusement park art are unique and often use photography as their medium of choice, as seen in the roller coaster print, 'Red Parachute Jump' by Erin Clark. Thanks to the pop art treatment that most of these thematic prints employ, roller coaster pictures have become a highly popular decorative option.
