Description
'I Never Read, I Just Look At Pictures', a reproduction of an iconic poster from Andy Warhol's first exhibition outside the USA in 1968 at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden. Designed by John Melin. This monochrome giclee print has a handmade and hand-finished sustainably sourced solid ash wood frame. Made in the UK by museum specialists and printed on heavyweight, matt-smooth fine art paper, it's ready to hang on your wall. Andy Warhol was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the USA in 1928 and after a successful career as a commercial illustrator, he became a renowned and sometimes controversial artist. He is regarded as one of the leading figures of the pop art movement and achieved a celebrity status beyond anything previously seen in the art world. In works that plundered the world of advertising, pop culture and celebrity, Warhol offered up iconic images in a comment on the banality of mass consumer culture - work that ironically made him famous in his own right. Working from his 'Factory' headquarters, Warhol cemented his lofty status by producing a prolific variety of art including drawings, screenprints, paintings, photographs, films and installations. Andy Warhol died in 1987, after somewhat over-extending his allotted 15 minutes of fame with an enduring legacy. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
