Artist: Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987).
Title: "Pink Marilyn [handbill]".
Medium: Original color silkscreen.
Date: Printed 1971.
Dimensions: Overall size: 11 13/16 x 8 1/4 in. (300 x 210 mm).
Lot Note(s): Signed in black marker. Edition of c200, of which few survive. Very thin smooth wove paper. The full sheet. A fine impression with bold, bright colors. Very good to fine condition; folds as issued. Literature/catalogue raisonne: Undoubtedly to be included in the forthcoming revised edition of the catalogue raisonne of Warhol's ephemera by Paul Marechal; cf. Feldman/Schellmann II.22-31. Comment(s): Extremely rare. Printed for the famous Tate Gallery exhibition of February 17th to March 28th, 1971. According to contemporary accounts, a stack was at the front desk the night of the opening and for a few nights prior to that, then they were gone. Most of them disappeared as they were casual box office advertising for the show. They were not for sale, didn't come with the catalogue, and a week into the show were no longer even heard of. Apparently our impression is an example of the things museums did in those days: print a few hundred handbills so that the word gets around. No auction records located. Signed by Warhol c1982 for a friend who had obtained it at the Tate opening. Image copyright © Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York. [28738-2-2400]
