Andy Warhol and Joseph Beuys at Lucio Amelio, 1980
Napoli, Italy: Lucio Amelio, 1980. 69x47 cm. Offset lithograph.
Legendary exhibition poster reproducing the double photographic portrait by Mimmo Jodice. A meeting took place between Beuys and Warhol in Naples on the occasion of the exhibition “Joseph Beuys by Andy Warhol” at Lucio Amelio gallery where the nine portraits Warhol made of Beuys were presented. “Their reunion resulted in a jarring dual portrait of the artists standing in an Italianate piazza in front of a sculpted lion, into whose gaping jaws Warhol has inserts his open palm. Beuys sits on the right, looking ratherunenthusiastic, holding Warhol’s other hand. This must be one of the best (and cringe-worthy) dual portraits in the history of contemporary art“ [C.Jordan, 2016]
Rare. Two small closed tears on right and a tiny bit of paper loss on the lowermost edge. Both unobtrusive. Otherwise fresh and sharp. Perfectly presentable copy especially when framed. Priced to reflect condition.
