Andy Warhol Saturday Disaster 1964
Richard Pettibone meticulously recreates Andy Warhol's iconic *Saturday Disaster* in this small-scale appropriation work, rendered in acrylic and silkscreen on canvas. The piece reflects Pettibone's signature practice of miniaturizing celebrated works of modern art, faithfully replicating Warhol's stark, repeated imagery of a gruesome car accident scene. Housed in the artist's own frame, the work raises questions about originality, authorship, and the nature of reproduction within the context of Pop Art.
