Andy Warhol
Lincoln Center Ticket

1967

About the Item

Andy Warhol (1928-1987) is arguably the most important American artist of the 20th century. He not only helped to define Pop Art, but has made a profound and enduring effect on artists and image-making around the globe. From the inception of his career in the 1950s to his final works in 1987, printmaking played a key role in Warhol’s practice. Warhol's screenprints from the 1960's are arguably from the most important and influential chapter of his career. This silkscreen was commissioned by Lincoln Center to commemorate the Fifth New York Film Festival in 1967. While the print served promotional purposes, it is unmistakably a Warhol, infused with iconic elements like saturated vibrant colours, floral motifs, and a printmaker’s touch. Presented as a vibrantly oversized ticket stub, the piece’s details are skillfully layered to create a buzzing composition. Warhol's design includes an intentional misalignment; different components appear to be overlapping and slightly off kilter. This energetic layering and placement conveys general movement and excitement. It also provides depth within the central floral elements. The floral pattern recalls Warhol’s iconic Flower paintings and prints from the mid-1960s. In these, he reduces hibiscus flowers to a basic motif, rendering them in unnaturally vivid hues similar to the fashion patterns and palettes from that era. After announcing his retirement from painting to focus on filmmaking in 1965, Warhol went on to produce nearly 650 underground and experimental films, including the commercially successful Chelsea Girls (1966). Since Warhol was dedicated and preoccupied by film making, it was fitting that he was commissioned for this project. Note: there are two versions of this print. One is a signed edition of 200 that was mounted on acrylic, published by the Leo Castelli Gallery. The second, as offered here, is a silkscreen from an edition of 500. This work can be found in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Scotland. Questions about this piece? Contact us. Visit our Toronto gallery on Thursdays or by appointment.

Geometric Mouse
By Claes Oldenburg
Located in Toronto, Ontario
Claes Oldenberg (b.1929) is a Swedish-born American artist, renowned for his contribution to Pop art by way of his iconic soft sculptures and public installations. In 1962, Oldenburg debuted his revolutionary soft sculptures at the Green Gallery in New York. Three giant, squishy sculptures of an ice cream cone, a hamburger, and a slice of cake, swelled across the gallery floor, forever changing the way we define sculpture. It has been noted that Oldenburg's early work was largely inspired by Yayoi Kusama's hand-sewn phallic-shaped soft sculptures that enveloped the surfaces of ironing boards, sofas, and boats. Click here to see an exhibition poster featuring a later example of Kusama's soft sculptures. Ranging from voluminous hamburgers (famously on display at the AGO) to ballistic badminton shuttlecocks, Oldenberg's colossal sculptures replicate commonplace objects on a grand scale, often disrupting the environment they inhibit with curious and playful subtexts. The confrontational nature of Oldenberg's sculptures places an emphasis on the viewer, asking us to reconsider our relationship to these recognizable, but obscure, objects. "Geometric Mouse...
