Andy Warhol, one of the most influential figures in 20th-century art, was renowned for his pioneering role in the Pop Art movement. His works often bridged the gap between high art and consumer culture, blurring the lines between commercial imagery and fine art. Warhol’s 1985 screenprint “Chanel” is a prime example of this, featuring the iconic Chanel No. 5 perfume bottle. By choosing a luxury brand as his subject, Warhol elevated a symbol of commercial success and elegance into the realm of art. This screenprint, part of a series, reflects Warhol’s fascination with branding and how consumer goods can become cultural icons.
The artwork, “Chanel”, was produced on Lenox Museum Board and is hand-signed and numbered by Warhol in pencil. Measuring 38 × 38 inches (96.5 × 96.5 cm), the screenprint captures the bold, graphic style characteristic of Warhol’s work, with vibrant colors and repetitive imagery. The piece embodies his signature approach to mass production and repetition, while also nodding to themes of luxury and desire. Warhol’s use of a high-end product like Chanel highlights his commentary on consumerism and the commodification of beauty, adding a layer of sophistication to his exploration of modern material culture.
