Edition/Galerie Hans Mayer/Düsseldorf.

Andy Warhol (born August 6, 1928 in Pittsburgh, died February 22, 1987 in New York) is an American artist of Lemko origin, one of the main representatives of Pop Art, known primarily for his simple and serial compositions with high color contrast, for which he used the serigraph technique. The serigraphs created with this method present consumer products from the average American refrigerator, i.e.: cans of Coca-Cola or Campbell's tomato soup, as well as objects from everyday life, e.g. popsicles, bananas, boxes of Brillo powder. Serigraphy enabled Warhol to reproduce stylized portraits of the entertainment world's biggest stars, which included: Brigitte Bardot, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Marlon Brando, Elizabeth Taylor. He also created images of other widely known figures, which at the time were Mao Zedong, Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Beuys. Andy Warhol treated everything he painted objectively and without undue emotion. Brillo powder and dollar bills had the same value for him as the likenesses of his contemporaries - all are consumer goods of American society, pop objects.
