”Silkscreen” Marilyn Color Series
6×7 format film, NYC 1987 “Silkscreen” Series London 1997
Pictured: Andy Warhol’s Wig, Glasses, and Money photographed in his New York City apartment.
Soon after Warhol’s death photographer David Gamble was permitted access to Warhol’s East 66th street House, Factory and Warehouse. There, he captured the placement of Warhol’s belongings as the artist had lived with them over the years. Rather than simply documenting the space, Gamble’s careful still-lifes capture the humanity and fierce individuality of the artist.
The color coordination in this series references Warhol’s, Marilyn silkscreen series. The colors and the sudo- silkscreen of the wig pictures were created by David Gamble using the Quantel Paintbox system over a series of weeks using complex techniques of reversing contrasts and mixing acid colors while keeping the original picture intact.
