Screenprint in colors, on Arches 88 paper - Co-published by Galerie Bernd Kluser and Editions Schellmann (with their and the artist's copyright inkstamp on the reverse) - Featured in Frayda Feldmann and Jörg Schellmann, Andy Warhol Prints: A Catalogue Raisonné 1962 - 1987, New York, 2003, cat. no. II.371, p. 152 (illustrated) // Andy Warhol’s Joseph Beuys in Memoriam (1986) is a powerful screen-print that honors the German conceptual artist Joseph Beuys. The image showcases Warhol’s distinctive pop-art style combined with Beuys' iconic presence. The portrait of Beuys, wearing his characteristic hat and serious expression, is overlaid with a camouflage pattern, blending Beuys' face into the military-style motif. The use of camouflage not only adds a modern, abstract layer to the artwork but also plays on the themes of identity, concealment, and visibility, which are recurrent in Warhol’s works. The muted green and gray tones of the camouflage contrast with the monochromatic depiction of Beuys, creating a sense of merging the personal with the impersonal, and perhaps reflecting on the complex legacy of Beuys as both an artist and a cultural figure. This piece, created in 1986, the year of Beuys' death, serves as a tribute to Beuys’ influence on the art world.

What is Comic Strip Art?

Comic strip art refers to artwork that utilizes the subject matter and commercial printing techniques found in comic strips. In the 1960s, a group of artists began creating paintings that incorporated Ben-Day dots—commonly used in comics and advertising—to produce highly graphic designs in bright colors, using traditional art media.
