About the Item

From The Jon Gould Collection of Andy Warhol Photographs. It's extremely rare to see a photo larger than 8 x 10 inches printed by Warhol, making this 11 x 14 inch photograph impressively unique. This work is not signed by the artist, however, each photo is unique and blind embossed “Andy Warhol” in the lower right corner (pictured). This item has not been officially stamped by The Andy Warhol Foundation because of its unique provenance. Jon Gould was arguably the love of Andy Warhol's life. During the course of their romantic relationship, Warhol gifted many photo prints directly to Gould. Jon Gould passed away from AIDS in 1986 and all of the photographs were willed to his twin brother, Jay Gould. Until this year, all these photographs have remained in storage and are in excellent condition. Provenance: Gift of the Artist to Jon Gould, by descent to Jay Gould Surely the most photographed subject of Andy Warhol’s art-making career, Jon Gould was born in Massachusetts to an East Coast establishment family with lineage back to the Mayflower and is best known as a Paramount Pictures film executive and the final boyfriend in Andy Warhol’s life. Jon Gould had an idyllic upbringing with a superlative education and connections. Fresh out of Harvard Radcliffe Institute, Gould moved to New York City where he first worked for Rolling Stone magazine, following which he moved to Los Angeles, where his career took off as a film production executive for Paramount Pictures. During his brief but meteoric rise at Paramount Pictures, Gould was part of the studio’s golden period when it produced films like Flashdance and Urban Cowboy. In 1980, Gould was introduced to Andy Warhol, who had recently parted with his longtime lover, Jed Johnson, coincidentally another twin with a brother named Jay. At that time, Warhol exclaimed, “I just have to be in love now or I’ll go crazy.” Warhol’s obsession with Gould was instantaneous. As Bob Colacello penned, in Holy Terror: Andy Warhol Close Up, "Old money, Harvard, Hollywood it was a résumé that Andy couldn't resist.” Gould and Warhol made for a formidable duo navigating the worlds of art and celebrity between New York, Los Angeles, Aspen, and Montauk along with travels to Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Palm Beach. Jon Gould was incredibly handsome, masculine and easily passed as a straight man, all of which Warhol found very attractive. In The Andy Warhol Diaries, Warhol says, “I love going out with Jon because it’s like being on a real date- he’s tall and strong and I feel that he can take care of me. And it’s exciting because he acts straight so I’m sure people think he is.” Gould’s looks and background seemingly offered Warhol access to a world from which he always felt excluded. Gould also became somewhat of a collector himself, through Warhol’s largesse and his friendship with other artists. Warhol photographed Gould constantly when they were together and created a painting of him in 1981. Likewise, Jean-Michel Basquiat painted Gould in 1985 while Keith Haring dedicated a New Year’s painting to Gould. Indeed, Gould inspired many of those who today we find most inspiring. The Jon Gould Collection of Andy Warhol Photographs includes hundreds of unique silver gelatin prints gifted by Warhol to Gould during their relationship. Upon Jon Gould’s death in 1986 at the age of 33 from complications of AIDS, the Collection passed to his family from whom the works are now available exclusively through Hedges Projects. The Jon Gould Collection of Andy Warhol Photographs features scores of heroic portraits of Gould along with other notable subjects such as Mick Jagger, Bianca Jagger, and Robert Rauschenberg. The works in this collection depict events and activities from The Andy Warhol Diaries (Editor Pat Hackett) and the Netflix series of the same name. They are also found in The Andy Warhol Photography Archive at The Cantor Arts Center of Stanford University. The combination of Warhol’s Diaries and the Photo Archive enables scholars, students, curators and collectors to research and contextualize these works in a singular manner providing insight into the artist and his subjects unlike any other medium.

Andy Warhol

The name of American artist Andy Warhol is all but synonymous with Pop art, the movement he helped shape in the 1960s. He was phenomenally prolific, and the archive of original photography, prints, drawings, paintings and other art that he left behind is beyond vast.

Andy Warhol is known for his clever appropriation of motifs and images from popular advertising and commercials, which he integrated into graphic, vibrant works that utilized mass-production technologies such as printmaking, photography and silkscreening. Later in his career, Warhol expanded his oeuvre to include other forms of media, founding Interview magazine and producing fashion shoots and films on-site at the Factory, his world-famous studio in New York.

Born and educated in in Pittsburgh, Warhol moved to New York City in 1949 and built a successful career as a commercial illustrator. Although he made whimsical drawings as a hobby during these years, his career as a fine artist began in the mid-1950s with ink-blot drawings and hand-drawn silkscreens. The 1955 lithograph You Can Lead a Shoe to Water illustrates how he incorporated in his artwork advertising styles and techniques, in this case shoe commercials.
