    Andy Warhol Vote McGovern (F & S II.84)

    Vote McGovern (F & S II.84) is a 1972 Andy Warhol screenprint created in support of George McGovern’s presidential campaign. As one of the rare instances in which Warhol openly aligned himself with a political candidate, the work holds a distinctive place within his oeuvre. Known primarily for his portraits of celebrities and cultural icons, Warhol here turns his Pop Art vocabulary toward electoral politics. Through bold colour and graphic intensity, Vote McGovern merges campaign imagery with Warhol’s unmistakable aesthetic, transforming political advocacy into a striking visual statement.

  • About Andy Warhol Vote McGovern 

    Created in 1972, Vote McGovern demonstrates Andy Warhol’s engagement with American politics at a pivotal historical moment. Supporting Democratic candidate George McGovern during his campaign against Richard Nixon, Warhol applies his signature Pop palette to the portrait, rendering McGovern with an unnatural blue face and vivid pink suit. The exaggerated colours heighten the tension between political seriousness and media spectacle, underscoring Warhol’s awareness of how candidates were shaped by television and print culture. Unlike his portraits of Mao or Lenin, which examine power and iconography from a cultural distance, Vote McGovern carries a more explicit political message. The screenprint reflects Warhol’s broader interest in public figures as media constructs, revealing how politics, like celebrity, operates through image, repetition, and mass dissemination.
