About the Item

Produced in 1989, this original exhibition poster features a self-portrait by Andy Warhol and was published for Galerie Isy Brachot in Brussels and Paris. It accompanied a major posthumous presentation of Warhol’s work, held in Brussels from October to December 1989 and subsequently in Paris in early 1990. The exhibition took place only two years after Warhol’s death and reflected the growing recognition of his influence on postwar art. By the end of the 1980s, his treatment of celebrity, consumer culture and mechanically reproduced imagery had become central to the history of Pop Art. The poster reproduces one of Warhol’s late self-portrait images, distinguished by his dramatic spiked “fright wig.” His pale face appears suspended against an almost completely black background, with only the eyes, facial features and flashes of hair emerging from the darkness. The direct gaze creates an image that is simultaneously confrontational, vulnerable and carefully constructed. A wide silver-grey border surrounds the square portrait, while Warhol’s name appears below in restrained pale-green typography. This minimal presentation allows the photographic image to dominate and echoes Warhol’s fascination with repetition, screen printing and the transformation of personal identity into a recognisable public icon. Andy Warhol (1928–1987) was one of the leading figures of American Pop Art. His paintings, films, photographs and prints explored the relationship between art, mass media, consumer products and celebrity. This is an original period exhibition poster rather than a signed or numbered fine-art print, making it an appealing piece for collectors of Warhol, Pop Art, self-portraiture and late 20th-century exhibition graphics.

1984 original poster by Warhol for the Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia

1984 original poster by Warhol for the Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia

By Andy Warhol

Located in PARIS, FR

The 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia, marked a momentous occasion in Olympic history, and one of the most iconic pieces of memorabilia from this event is Andy Warhol’s striking official poster. Known for his revolutionary pop art style, Warhol was among several renowned artists commissioned to create promotional artwork for the XIV Olympic Winter Games. Warhol’s silkscreen-inspired poster captures the intensity and movement of a speed skater in full stride. Using bold neon outlines, a vibrant red body suit, and dynamic geometric background elements, the composition conveys a sense of urgency and athleticism. The contrasting colors—deep black, electric green, yellow, and blue—amplify the subject’s momentum, making the skater appear almost weightless against the abstract backdrop. While Warhol is best known for his depictions of celebrities and consumer goods, this Olympic commission demonstrated his versatility as an artist. His ability to distill movement and expression into a minimalist yet powerful composition makes this piece stand out among other Olympic posters. This official 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics poster is highly sought after by collectors and Olympic memorabilia enthusiasts alike. As one of Warhol’s few sports-related works, it embodies both his unmistakable artistic style and the spirit of global athletic competition. Warhol’s Sarajevo Olympics...
