Andy Warhol (1928-1987)

Executed in 1967, this extremely rare grouping of four unique Self-Portraits on vinyl was created at the zenith of Andy Warhol’s influence on the artworld and was gifted to Billy Name, the infamous manager of The Factory, where Warhol produced his most important early work. This storied provenance is a testament to the artist’s legacy and cultural impact so treasured in the owners’ collections. These scarce Self-Portraits in red are likely the only grouping of four still together in existence and have been in Name’s personal collection since 1967 throughout the rest of the century, and subsequently, have been with the current collector since 1998. In the Self-Portraits, a powerful shade of crimson articulates Andy Warhol's silhouette which has become an American icon.
