Flowers (Warhol)
Flowers is a series of silkscreen paintings by American artist Andy Warhol between 1964 and 1965. Based on a photograph of hibiscus blossoms published in Modern Photography magazine, the works feature brightly colored, flatly rendered flowers set against a dark, grassy ground. First exhibited at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York in November 1964, Flowers became one of Warhol's most recognizable bodies of work and a key example of his use of repetition, appropriation, and mechanical reproduction in Pop art. For his 1965 exhibition at the Ileana Sonnabend Gallery in Paris, Warhol created a second series of smaller Flowers. He later produced a Flowers portfolio in 1970 featuring varied silkscreen compositions, and in 1974 created Hand Colored Flowers, a portfolio of ten hand-colored screen prints.
