About the Item

Andy Warhol Leo Castelli Gallery 1972: Leo Castelli gallery released this colorful, highly collectible 1970s Andy Warhol Mao announcement card in 1972 to promote Andy Warhol’s soon-to-be-released portfolio of ten screen-prints of the iconic Chinese leader. Offset printed on smooth wove paper. 7 x 7 inches (Overall size when opened: 7 x 14 in.). Very good overall vintage condition. Some minor signs of handling. Pub. Castelli Graphics & Multiples, Inc., New York, 1972. Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Looks fantastic framed. Andy Warhol & Mao: "Warhol showed a great deal of interest in the Chinese political situation in 1971: “I have been reading so much about China. They’re so nutty. They don’t believe in creativity. The only picture they ever have is of Mao Zedong. It’s great. It looks like a silkscreen”. The following year he created a portrait of the communist leader based on a photograph from his famous Little Red Book – ‘The thoughts of Chairman Mao’. Like many of his 1970s portraits, Warhol’s Mao paintings are much more painterly than his Pop works of the 1960s with strong, colourful brushwork clearly visible..." (source: Tate London) Obsessed with celebrity, consumer culture, and mechanical reproduction, Pop Art king, Andy Warhol created some of the 20th century’s most iconic images. Warhol was widely influenced by popular & consumer culture, with this being evident in some of his most famous works: 32 Campbell's soup cans, Brillo pad box sculptures, and portraits of Marilyn Monroe & Mick Jagger, for example. Rejecting the standard painting and sculpting modes of his era, Warhol embraced silk-screen printmaking to achieve his characteristic hard edges and flat areas of color. The artist mentored Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat and continues to influence contemporary art around the world: His most bold successors include Richard Prince, Takashi Murakami, and Jeff Koons. Warhol has been the subject of exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Museum of Modern Art, Tate Modern, and Centre Pompidou, among other institutions.
