About the Item
Vik Muniz
1961-present Brazilian
Andy Warhol, from the Pictures of Ink series
Cibachrome print on photographic paper
This work by Vik Muniz, the contemporary Brazilian artist renowned for his use of unconventional materials and techniques, beautifully captures the essence of the great Andy Warhol. Rendered dot by dot by Muniz's own hand, the famous Warhol portrait becomes slightly abstracted, making for a more impactful and interactive visual experience.
After painstakingly creating this portrait, Muniz photographed the drawing while the glistening ink was still wet. Using the traditional Cibachrome printing process, the resulting photographic print captures every detail of the ink with mesmerizing clarity. When viewers step back, the iconic Warhol fantastically materializes in all his glory. Created in 2000, this work is part of a limited edition of six, with an additional four artist's proofs.
Vik Muniz is celebrated for his innovative use of materials, such as chocolate syrup, dirt and tomato sauce. His unique approach has garnered widespread acclaim from both the art establishment and commercial interests. Muniz frequently incorporates popular figures into his work, with past subjects including Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy and Maria Callas. His choice of medium often reflects the dual nature of his subjects, spanning the spectrum from high art to everyday materials. Muniz’s versatility is evident in his use of both unconventional substances and traditional photographic processes like Cibachrome and Ilfoflex. Regardless of the medium, Muniz's art is both challenging and accessible, a rare feat that has cemented his popularity among collectors and the general public alike.

Vik Muniz
Vik Muniz is a Brazilian artist currently working out of New York.
Muniz is well known for his broad range of experimental works. While he started his career as a sculptor, his practice today is almost entirely photo-based — creating works but then photographing them.
Muniz’s interest in human visual understanding is the running theme behind the majority of his work, of which a photograph called Key, from Earthworks is a perfect example. The "Earthworks" series also includes images of electrical outlets, tobacco pipes, footprints, scissors, dice, paper airplanes, envelopes, and coat hangers. The juxtaposition of intimate, inanimate objects and the living, changing landscape renders this photographic series truly striking.
Muniz's innovative and shifting methods of visual communication are what constantly earn him recognition and admiration internationally. He frequently destabilizes the conventions of the art history canon by revisiting or appropriating conventions and icons but realizing them in unconventional materials and creative strategies.
Muniz's work can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Tate, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art to name a few.
