    Warhol stated: ‘I like money on the wall. Say you were going to buy a painting. I think you should take that money, tie it up, and put it on the wall. Then when someone visited you the first thing they would see is money on the wall.’

    Created in 1982, the Dollar Sign series embodies Warhol's distinctive pop art style, where mundane or everyday objects are elevated into fine art through repetition, bold colours, and mechanical production techniques. In this portfolio, Warhol elevates the ordinary into the extraordinary. By focusing on the dollar sign, he comments on the commodification of art itself, blurring the lines between high art and commercialism. The portfolio presents Warhol’s bold examination of the interplay between art and money. Known for his use of irony and ambiguity, Warhol’s work invites viewers to ponder whether it critiques, celebrates, or simultaneously does both in relation to its subject matter.

    Warhol's Dollar Sign portfolio connects with the broader themes of pop art by taking an ordinary and globally recognisable image and transforming it into a statement about mass production, value, and desire. This print depicts a red dollar sign against a blue background, echoing the gaudy colours used in advertising. By focusing on the dollar sign, Warhol comments on the commodification of art itself, blurring the lines between high art and commercialism. With an astute awareness of this irony, Warhol stated: ‘I like money on the wall. Say you were going to buy a painting. I think you should take that money, tie it up, and put it on the wall. Then when someone visited you the first thing they would see is money on the wall.’
