Happy Birthday Marilyn


Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was a key figure in Pop Art, an art movement that emerged in America.


Warhol was fascinated with morbid concepts. Sometimes, however, the results are astonishingly beautiful, such as the resonating, brilliantly colored images of Marilyn Monroe. The Marilyn canvases were early examples of Warhol’s use of silkscreen printing.
