Meaning & Analysis

The small edition of Lemons is unique in the larger series of Space Fruit. This composition demonstrates less other-worldliness and a more neutral color palette than the vibrant compositions in the remainder of the series, adding to its rarity. The series Space Fruit began as a collaboration between Warhol and the printmaker Rupert Jasen Smith. The pair photographed fruit with heightened shadow before using overdrawing and color blocking to create the appearance of collage in their screen prints.

  • 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.
