Poster, Andy Warhol, All is pretty

Dimensions: 70 x 100 cm

The motif on this poster is a work of art in the collection of Moderna Museet.

The catalogue for Andy Warhol's famous exhibition at Moderna Museet in 1968 consisted of four parts: documentation of Warhol's artwork, two series of images from Warhol's studio The Factory, and a small selection of Warhol's quotes and aphorisms taken from books and newspaper clippings. The graphic design was done by John Melin and Gösta Svensson. When a poster was to be made for the exhibition, the quotes were used as the motif, instead of the usual reproduction of a painting. A series of about ten posters was made with different quotes in the powerful and readable typography that was John Melin's trademark, which was also used as posters out in the city of Stockholm.
