A Few of My Favorite Things with Executive Director Sean Ulmer
Andy Warhol, Jackie III, 1966
"One of the things I like about this work is that is it represents an iconic person of the 1960s (and beyond!) appropriated and re-presented by one of the most iconic artists of the twentieth century, Andy Warhol. It is one of only two works by Warhol in our collection, and it is a terrific piece! Wow, what a piece to have! In this work, Warhol appropriates four press images of Jackie Kennedy, both before and after the assassination of President Kennedy. By cropping the image close to the face, Warhol forces us to focus on the expression of Jackie, sharing in her grief, yet understanding we cannot fully comprehend the depths of her emotions. As a quintessential Pop Art work, drawing as it does from images drawn from popular culture, Warhol raises questions about image and brand, public vs. private, and consumer culture, long before those things were better understood and discussed."
