About the Item

The sculpture Heinz Box (Art Deco) by Charles Lutz is an innovative reimagining of the iconic Heinz box and is a striking fusion of contemporary Pop Art and Art Deco elegance. Crafted with a rich Macassar ebony veneer, the box exudes a deep, lustrous sheen, its wood grain showing an intricate pattern that evokes a sense of sophistication and luxury. The form retains the recognizable shape of the Heinz packaging, yet Lutz transforms it with his Art Deco influences: geometric lines that echo the glamour of the 1920s and 1930s. The box's surface is meticulously detailed in it's red printing, creating an elegant contrast against the dark ebony. The iconic Heinz label, often associated with Andy Warhol’s Pop Art feels both modern and timeless. The artisit signs the piece on the botton in red as well as on the top in stainless steel, in a logo based on the font design of the 1920's Louis Vuitton label. This sculpture stands as a tribute to both Warhol’s vibrant Pop sensibility and the opulent design elements of Art Deco, merging the bold and familiar with an elevated sense of artistry and craftsmanship. Its presence is both playful and refined, capturing the essence of consumer culture through a luxurious lens that invites viewers to reconsider the intersections of mass production, fine art, and historical design. Lacquer and acrylic paint on Macassar Ebony veneer over Baltic Birch with stainless steel elements. 8.5 x 15.5 x 10.5 in. (21.6 x 39.4 x 26.7 cm.) 2024

Set of 4 Denied Warhol Box Sculptures Including Brillo and Heinz by Charles Lutz
By Charles Lutz
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Set of 4 Denied Warhol Contemporary Pop Art Sculptures by Charles Lutz. Silkscreen and latex paint on wood in 4 parts, stamped Denied with the Andy Warhol Art Authentication Board's mark. 62 x 21" overall Each measures: Kellogg's 25 x 21 x 17" White Brillo 17 x 14 x 17" Yellow Brillo 13 x 16 x 11.5" Heinz 8.5 x 15.5 x 10.5" 2008 Lutz's 2007 ''Warhol Denied'' series gained him international attention calling into question the importance of originality or lack thereof in the work of Andy Warhol. The authentication/denial process of the [[Andy Warhol Art Authentication Board]] was used to create value by submitting recreations of Warhol works for judgment with the full intention for the works to be formally marked "DENIED". The final product of the conceptual project being "officially denied" "Warhol" works authored by Lutz. Andy Warhol's Brillo Boxes were originally created in 1964 and are easily his most iconic sculptures, rivaling paintings like Liz Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, Campbell's Soup Cans, Flowers and Electric Chairs. These highly prized sculptures continue to soar in value and were the subject of a recent HBO documentary, “Brillo Box (3¢ Off)”, which also included Charles Lutz. Lutz, also known for the installation work Babel, exhibited at the 2013 Armory Fair in New York City which caused near riots as he invited the fair goers to take cardboard versions of the Brillo Box Sculptures. "In the mid-1960s, Warhol carried his consumer-product imagery into the realm of sculpture. Calling to mind a factory assembly line, Warhol employed carpenters to construct numerous plywood boxes identical in size and shape to supermarket cartons. With assistance from Gerard Malanga and Billy Linich, he painted and silkscreened the boxes with different consumer product logos: Kellogg’s Corn Flakes...

Located in Montreal, Quebec
Ed. of 10 Felt artist Lucy Sparrow is one of the most exciting and original artists working in the UK today. Her practice is quirky yet subversive, luring the audience in with her soft, tactile, colorful felt creations before hitting them hard with her comment on subjects from the demise of the traditional high street to censorship in pornography. She took the art world by storm in Summer 2014 with the opening of her fully stocked felt Cornershop installation in London’s East End. With queues around the block and wall to wall media coverage, the installation was both a commercial and critical success. In 2016, the BBC commissioned Lucy to recreates the Crown Jewels in felt, to celebrate HRH The Queen’s official 90th birthday. In May 2017, Lucy undertook her first solo show in the US, opening The Convenience Store, a New York bodega stocked with 9,000 felted artworks...
