Gedruckt von Aetna Silkscreen Products, Inc., New York, und herausgegeben von Factory Additions, New York. • Warhols 'Marilyn' ist die Ikone der modernen Druckgrafik schlechthin. • In seiner Marilyn bündelt Andy Warhol alle Sehnsüchte, die mit ihrer Person bis heute verbunden sind. • Ein Blatt aus dem ersten Mappenwerk, das von den von Warhol gegründeten Factory Additions, New York, herausgegeben wurde. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Hessen (seit 2004, Lempertz). LITERATUR: Frayda Feldman, Jörg Schellmann, Claudia Defendi. Andy Warhol Prints. A catalogue raisonné 1962-1987, New York 2003, WVZ-Nr. II.27. - - Lempertz, Auktion 868, Zeitgenössische Kunst, 3.12.2004, Los 691 (m. Abb.). 'Die Ausstrahlung der Warholschen Porträts ist so stark, daß wir uns heute an Marilyn Monroe in der Gestalt erinnern, die Warhol ihr verliehen hat. Das gilt auch für andere Porträts, am meisten aber für den Star der Stars, für Marilyn.' Carl Haenlein, in: Andy Warhol. Bilder 1961 bis 1981, Ausst.-Kat. Kestner-Gesellschaft Hannover, Hannover 1981, S. 8. Warhols Marilyn-Siebdrucke gehören zu den bekanntesten und auch programmatischsten Werken der Pop-Art. Die Serigrafie als künstlerisches Medium ist von der spontanen Mal-Geste ebenso weit entfernt wie die Serienproduktion vom originalen Einzelwerk. Bei Warhol aber liegt die Eindringlichkeit eines Motivs gerade und erst in der Summe der Bilder. Das zugrunde liegende Gestaltungsprinzip ist hier wie in vielen anderen Werken die Variation des immer gleichen ikonografischen Themas. Selbst schon zur Ware der amerikanischen Konsumgesellschaft geworden, werden auch die Stars, einem industriellen Massenprodukt vergleichbar, der Öffentlichkeit präsentiert. Seit ihrem Tod 1962 entstanden zahlreiche serielle Marilyn-Monroe-Bilder, deren farbige Oberflächen das glamouröse Image der Schauspielerin betonen. Wie in nahezu all seinen weiblichen Porträts sind sie durch Lippenstift, Lidschatten und ein fotogenes Lächeln gekennzeichnet, das ihnen einen maskenhaften Charakter verleiht. Den verschiedenen Leinwandfassungen folgt 1967 nach der Vorlage eines Pressefotos ein Portfolio mit zehn Serigrafien, die ein und denselben Bildgegenstand, das lächelnde Gesicht der Schauspielerin, in zehn Farbvarianten wiederholen. Im vorliegenden Blatt legt Warhol fünf Farbschablonen auf und betont besonders die Lippen in einem kräftigen Lila-Blau , das einen deutlichen Kontrast zum pinken Grund bildet. 'Für die Marilyn-Serie greift Warhol auf eine Werbestandaufnahme für den Film 'Niagara' aus dem Jahre 1953 zurück […] Warhols Bildnis zeigt das Entstehen eines Mythos. Es zeigt, wie der primäre Sinn der Portraitphotographie, nämlich das naturgetreue Abbild eines Menschen zu sein, durch einen sekundären Sinn überlagert und verformt wird, der in diesem Menschen etwas anderes, neues sieht: die perfekte Kreatur, die sexuelle Wunschfigur, die Verkörperung des Amerikanischen Traums usw. Und es zeigt – und hier beginnt der Mythos –, wie dieser sekundäre Sinn, so sehr er eine Projektion sein mag, durch den Realismus, den die Photographie als 'wahres Abbild' verbürgt, dennoch in der 'Wirklichkeit' eines tatsächlich existierenden Menschen verankert wird. Die Marilyns sind fiktiv und realistisch zugleich, sie zeigen ein Wesen, das über den Menschen steht und dennoch einer von ihnen ist.“ (Michael Lüthy, in: Andy Warhol.

'The aura of Warhol's portraits is so strong that we remember Marilyn Monroe in the likeness Warhol gave her. This is also true for other portraits, but above all for Marylin, the star of all stars.' Carl Haenlein, in: Andy Warhol. Bilder 1961 bis 1981, ex. cat. Kestner-Gesellschaft Hanover, 1981, p. 8. Warhol's Marilyn silkscreens are among Pop Art's most famous programmatic works. Silkscreen printing as an artistic medium is just as far removed from the spontaneous gesture of painting as serial production is from an original work that carries the artist's signature. In Warhol's work, however, a motif's poignancy lies precisely in the totality of the images. As in many of his other works, the underlying design principle here is the variation on the same iconographic theme. Having become a commodity of American consumerism, the stars are presented in a way comparable to an industrial mass product. Since she died in 1962, numerous series of Marilyn Monroe pictures have been created, their colorful surfaces emphasizing the actress's glamorous image. As in almost all of his female portraits, they are characterized by lipstick, eye shadow, and a photo-friendly smile that lends them a mask-like character. Following various canvas versions, Warhol created a portfolio of ten silkscreens based on a press photo in 1967, which repeated the same subject, the smiling face of the actress, in ten color variations. In the present sheet, Warhol used five color stencils and emphasized the lips in a bold purple-blue contrasting sharply with the pink background. “For the Marilyn series, Warhol drew on an advertising image from the 1953 film ‘Niagara’ [..] Warhol's image shows the creation of a myth. It shows how the primary purpose of portrait photography, namely to be a true-to-life likeness of a person, is overlaid and distorted by a secondary purpose, which sees something else in this person: the perfect creature, the object of sexual desire, the embodiment of the American dream. Moreover, it shows –and this is where the myth begins – how this secondary sense, however much it may just be a projection, is anchored in the 'reality' of an existing human being by the realism that photography guarantees as a 'true image.' The Marilyns are fictitious and realistic; they show a being that stands above the people and is one of them.” (Michael Lüthy, in: Andy Warhol. Thirty are better than none, Frankfurt a. Main 1995, pp. 51ff.) [EH] Called up: December 7, 2024 - ca. 17.25 h +/- 20 min. This lot can be purchased subject to differential or regular taxation, artist´s resale right compensation is due.

* STUART MCALPINE MILLER (SCOTTISH b. 1964), SPELLBOUND IN MOTION limited edition digital print on paper, signed in silver ink and numbered 43/100, from the Revelations : A Portrait of Magic Seriesmounted, framed and under glass image size 81cm x 63cm, overall size 101cm x 82cmNote: certificate of authenticity is included with this lot.Note 2: Scottish artist Stuart regularly hits the headlines with his Pop Art paintings. Fusing cartoons with themes of idealism and consumerism, his multilayered artworks blend the past with the present through layers of figurative imagery, text and symbols. His release, Revelations: A Portrait of Magic, depicts the central characters of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. Stuart's McAlpine Miller’s spectral style has been described as ‘supernatural realism’ by the BBC and Radio 2 art critic Estelle Lovatt, who also praised its 4D aesthetic, adding that he has “one of the most creative minds in art today”. Using subtle tones of paint, he creates the illusion of transparency. The overall effect is similar to looking through a glass bottle, distorting the image and presenting a different version of the same subject. In turn, a far-fetched reality is created, highlighting the unrealistic expectations of today’s society. A graduate of the prestigious Glasgow School of Art, Stuart is an admirer of Old Masters such as Caravaggio and Hieronymus Bosch but is particularly inspired by one of the leading exponents of Pop Art, Andy Warhol. Stuart says: “Warhol’s views on mass consumerism and the way he translated these into his art is something I really relate to. I hope my art does something similar and stands the test of time.” Inspired by JK Rowling's Harry Potter novels, Stuart’s Revelations: A Portrait of Magic collection has captured best-loved characters including Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Albus Dumbledore, Draco Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange. Stuart says: “The art of illusion and magic reveals itself through the unified bond of the three central characters. As we continue to work in unison, we open the doors to an unimagined future, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. A new era lies ahead, as yet unrecognised but already awaiting our arrival.”In 2011, Stuart was chosen as artist-in-residence by the world-famous Savoy hotel after its major refurbishment. During his time there, he produced the collection A Time For Reflection: The Savoy Suite, which offered a unique insight into the hotel's patron, including Alfred Hitchcock, Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Chaplin. This popular release for Castle Fine Art was followed by Lost Lives/Split Personalities, which depicted some of history's most famous musicians including David Bowie, Amy Winehouse, Freddie Mercury and George Michael. Music took on a new meaning for Stuart when he began playing the piano seriously. Stuart says: “Music has for me, like many others, greatly influenced my own approach to my art, and the potential it creates within. The emotion that music can reveal allows the listener to transport themselves to a time, a place and a feeling. Art can do the same. We just have to open our minds.” The piano and art took on a new significance for Stuart when he was commissioned by Paul McCartney to paint the piano which he used on his 2004 European Tour. Stuart’s talents also saw him work on several advertising campaigns including Renault, McVities and Virgin; he also painted a triptych of The Alternative Last Supper used as backdrop for the main dining scene in Stephen Berkoff’s 1998 film Decadence. Stuart McAlpine Miller has commissions and collectors around the world, and has exhibited internationally, including Connaught Brown, the Catto Gallery, Kings Road Gallery, Rebecca Hossack Gallery and Duncan Miller in London; Ruth O'Hara and Hoerle-Guggenheim in New York and the SOTA Gallery, Hong Kong, as well as through the Castle Fine Art network of galleries in the UK.
