Flowers
1964
From Warhol's iconic 1964 Flowers series, this screenprint exemplifies the artist's transformation of found imagery into pop art statements that blur the boundaries between commercial and fine art. Measuring 60.96 × 60.96 cm and signed by the artist, the work represents one of 300 impressions from this celebrated edition. Acquired from Revolver and maintained in excellent condition, this example demonstrates Warhol's masterful use of the screenprint medium during his most productive decade.

Artists in conversation
Donald Sultan
American · b. 1951
Sultan's large scale floral screenprints and prints use bold graphic silhouettes of flowers with vivid flat color fields, directly echoing Warhol's transformation of natural botanical subjects into striking pop imagery through the screenprint medium.
Takashi Murakami
Japanese · b. 1962
Murakami's limited edition floral screenprints and prints feature vivid saturated colors and simplified flower forms that consciously reference Warhol's Flowers series, sharing the same strategy of flattening natural imagery into bold commercial style graphic statements.
Peter Max
American · b. 1937
Max's screenprints from the same post war era use intensely vivid non naturalistic color combinations and simplified floral and organic motifs produced in limited editions, closely paralleling Warhol's approach of elevating popular graphic imagery through the silkscreen medium.
