Meaning & Analysis

This work shows the artist’s famous flower motif, rotated, rendered in this print with soft pink and yellow hues against a starkly contrasted grass background. With the Flowers series, Warhol exhibits his unrivalled skill in the screen print process by using the same photographic motif for each print and rendering it in a multitude of variations of colour and composition.

Taken from a photograph by Patricia Caulfield found in a 1964 issue of Modern Photography, Warhol deliberately appropriates and repeats the image excessively to mirror the mechanical forms of reproduction found in mass-media that he was so fascinated by. This idea of assembly-line production was reinforced by Warhol’s ‘Factory’ that opened in New York in 1964, where he produced many of his screen prints, noting: “Mechanical means are today and using them I can get more art to more people. Art should be for everyone.”

Flowers (F. & S.II.67) reworks the traditional art historical genre of flower painting, by appropriating an image from a magazine and reproducing it in a ‘machine-like’ manner, to challenge ideas of fine art, authorship and creativity. Warhol directly participates in appropriation and image dissemination. Consciously banal and synthetic. He rejects hierarchical compositions in favour of flattened perspective and abolishes complex colour harmonies for monochrome planes of flat colour and artificially bright ink.

  • Andy Warhol was a leading figure of the Pop Art movement and is often considered the father of Pop Art. Born in 1928, Warhol allowed cultural references of the 20th century to drive his work. From the depiction of glamorous public figures, such as Marilyn Monroe, to the everyday Campbell’s Soup Can, the artist challenged what was considered art by blurring the boundaries between high art and mass consumerism. Warhol's preferred screen printing technique further reiterated his obsession with mass culture, enabling art to be seen as somewhat of a commodity through the reproduced images in multiple colour ways.
