Iconic Paintings for Sale
The contemporary era is undeniably dominated by the media, which has the power to catapult individuals into the spotlight in an instant, transforming the unknown into the known. Our society is filled with celebrities we either admire, judge, or despise, and by achieving public figure status, they influence our opinions, set trends, and impact the public sphere. It's only natural that contemporary artists recognize these new cultural icons and incorporate them into their works. This movement, led by the pop art revolution, includes the famous screenprints of celebrities by Andy Warhol, which helped establish the trend of depicting public figures both as cultural references and, critically, as symbols of our capitalist consumer society. Don't miss the works of Jef Aérosol in the must-sees on Artsper.
