Andy Warhol’s Mammy, graphite drawing, shows a simplified line portrait of a woman with a headscarf and hoop earrings, part of the Myths series.

From the Myths Suite - Graphite on handmade paper - Stamped with "The Estate of Andy Warhol and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. " stamps, inscribed 'VF' and numbered '83.0003' (on the reverse) // Andy Warhol's Mammy, created in 1981, is a graphite drawing on handmade paper, part of the Myths series. The portrait features a simplified, linear depiction of a woman with large hoop earrings, a headscarf, and a calm expression. The minimalist line work, characteristic of Warhol's approach, strips the figure down to its essential features, allowing the viewer to focus on the contours and symbolic representation. The figure of the Mammy taps into a loaded cultural iconography from American history, and Warhol, through his pop art lens, engages with this historical imagery in a modern and abstracted form. The drawing is stamped by The Estate of Andy Warhol and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc., further verifying its provenance.

What is late modernism?

Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
