Meaning & Analysis

This innovative image, and its entire series Joseph Beuys, highlights the Pop artist’s admiration and respect for his contemporary artist and activist Joseph Beuys (1921-1986). He snapped this headshot with a polaroid camera when the two met in 1979. The entire series originates with this single photograph. Beuys was widely regarded for his performance art and happenings, which often incorporated ideas of shamanism. Although Warhol’s interests in fame diverged from Beuys', the two admired each other’s work. Both artists actively worked to fashion their own images, and Warhol’s respect for his fellow artist is evident in this particular work and the larger series Joseph Beuys.

  • 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.
