Edition Overview
Andy Warhol (1928-1987) shaped the Pop- Art artist like no other artist. In the early 1960s he switched from commercial art to provocative fine art without breaking thematically with the world of consumer goods. His popular subjects of choice were soup cans, dollar bills and Hollywood film stars. Like his gaudy artworks he was a character of special appearance, known for his characteristic wig and dark sunglasses. More than any other artist he always emphasized his commercial approach to art which made him a contemporary cultural icon that continues to inspire today.
