Andy Warhol “Flowers” at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice Italy
Andy Warhol, Flowers Painting - Acrylic on Canvas (61 x 61 cm) 1964
This very spring painting by Andy Warhol was painted in 1964 from hibiscus photographed by artist Patricia Caulfield published in Modern Photography.
Andy Warhol endorsed this photo by giving it a decorative effect created by reproducing the hibiscus's unique image several times.
The flower's white becomes a real colour in this painting, with contrasting greens streaked by the grass strands.
Some have seen an image of life and death in this juxtaposition of flowers' white purity to this dark green.
