Serial Art (Serial Imagery)

Serial Art (Serial Imagery): The repetition, with slight variations, of an image in the same work of art, whether a single canvas or related modules of a sculptured work; named in the late 1960s. Andy Warhol and Donald Judd have both worked in the serial image mode. It displays some traits of systemic painting, although it is a distinct movement.”
