Andy Warhol Apple (F & S II.359) For Sale

The Apple screenprint originates from Andy Warhol’s 1985 Ads Series. This series draws on his skill as a commercial illustrator, boosting commonplace goods up to the status of high art. The portfolio is a stunning exemplar of Warhol’s ability to encapsulate his fascination with American consumerism, and the powerful symbols of commercialism and commodification.

The screenprint serves as a powerful testament to the intersection of technology, advertising, and power. Its vibrant colours reflect Warhol’s deep engagement with American consumerism and his unique ability to transform the mundane into art, blurring the boundaries between high and low culture. This print epitomises Warhol’s practice of elevating mass media imagery into the realm of fine art. At the centre of Warhol's Apple is the iconic Macintosh Computers logo—an apple with a bite taken out of it. While the original design and rainbow colour scheme of the logo are preserved, Warhol infuses the image with his signature style, adding his own vivid hues and expressive lines.

The integration of the original rainbow colours with Warhol’s characteristic Pop Art palette creates a seamless blend that is distinctly Warholian. The hand-drawn, crayon-like lines in the background lend the piece a playful, almost childlike quality. These wavy lines, outlining the Apple logo, complement the screenprint's vivid colours, achieved through multiple layers of paint and screens. The Apple symbol, now as ubiquitous as the fruit itself, has become a logo recognized globally, illustrating Warhol’s keen insight into the symbols most relevant to consumerism and visual culture.

In addition to Apple, Warhol's collection of Ads reimagines the most recognisable logos, faces, and trademarks while addressing the implicit impact that branding has on American consumer behaviour. The portfolio's main focus is on pop culture and the ways in which branded imagery helps celebrities, both people and products, gain even more notoriety, making it one of Warhol’s most sought-after portfolios.
