The Flower series is one of Andy Warhol’s most successful projects. A departure from his usual representation of brands, the series is based on a photograph of hibiscus blossoms th at he found in a magazine titled Modern Photography. According to art critic David Bourdon, Warhol’s vibrant manipulation of colors produces a floating effect in his flowers, “like cut-out gouaches by Matisse set adrift on Monet’s lily pond.”It is also said that the series gave rise to the expression “flower power,” against the backdrop of the massive non-violence movement during the 1960’s.Produced and numbered by The Skateroom in 2019 under license from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc.
