Gerald Bruneau
Portrait of Andy Warhol Posing on Blue Background - by G. Bruneau - 1980s

1980s

About the Item

This Portrait of Andy Warhol posing on blue background is an original photograph realized by the French portrait artist Gerald Bruneau (Monte Carlo, 1947) during the 1980's, with a visible blueprint-toning. Signed, dated and stamped, our specimen is from a limited edition of only 5 pieces. In excellent condition, including a black painted wooden frame, under glass, this original portrait has the officiality of a formal portrait and the magic of the pictorial realism of the 1940's daguerreotypes above all on the background. In a large dark room, the clear face and the silver hairpiece of the Pop Art father stand out, managing to capture Andy Warhol's aura. The artist is portrayed in a self-confident attitude, sitting near a standing model Gerald Bruneau (Monte Carlo, 1947), The French photographer, Gerald Bruneau, since 1989, for twenty years, has been part of the Grazia Neri Agency, through which he creates portraits, covers and services for the largest newspapers in the world such as "Washington Post", "Time", " Newsweek "," Le Figaro "," Le Monde "," Wall Street Journal "," Der Spiegel "," L'Espresso ". In 1989 he realized the photographic reportages in Israel and in Kurdistan by Repubblica, in 1990 he photographed the 1 May in Tirana with the writer Giordano Bruno Guerri for the magazine "Chorus", and he made a reportage on the Red Army in Russia. But he also is the portrait photographer of the father of Popo art, Andy Warhol, indeed for two years (1978-80) he was "the worker" of the Factory, at this time two shots of the "master" came while he painted alone. After the death of the father of Pop Art in 1987, Gerald returned to photograph his home and the objects he owned. This series has become precious today because it brings us back to Warhol's intimacy: Andy's bedroom, the living room of his house with the paintings of famous contemporary painters, a wooden piggybank he kept in his basement.
