Marilyn Invitation (Castelli Graphics) is a miniature version of Andy Warhol’s Marilyn (FS II.30) and was created as an announcement for the exhibition Andy Warhol: A Print Retrospective 1963-1981 on display from November 21 to December 22, 1981 at Castelli Gallery in New York. The Leo Castelli Gallery was the first gallery to show Warhol’s work in 1962.
Obsessed with celebrity, consumer culture, and mechanical reproduction, Pop artist Andy Warhol created some of the century’s most iconic images. He drew widely from popular culture and everyday subject matter in his famous works. Along with his pop art images of Brillo boxes and Campbell’s soup cans, Warhol created celebrity portraits of famous icons. Following Marilyn Monroe’s tragic death in August 1962, Warhol created his first portrait of the late starlet. Marilyn became the quintessential pop icon in the Pop Art Movement and for Andy Warhol.
Featured in the 2022 Edition of ArtNews Top 200 Collectors, Jacob Baal-Teshuva was recognized as one of the most distinguished international editors and appraisers of modern and contemporary art. Born in Jerusalem in 1929, Baal-Teshuva studied at the Hebrew University there and then, after emigrating to the U.S, continued his studies at New York University while writing as a freelance journalist at the United Nations. As author, curator, scholar, appraiser and collector, fluent in five languages, Baal-Teshuva was engaged in the highest echelon of art collectors and museums across five continents. He forged personal relationships with most of the major artists of the last century, amassing a collection of hundreds of works of art. Baal-Teshuva authored books on Rothko, Christo and Jean Claude, Calder, Warhol, Tiffany, and numerous volumes on Marc Chagall. Sadly, Jacob Baal-Teshuva passed away in early 2022.
