Chanel No. 5 (suite of four (4) separate prints with varnish on linen backing)

1996

About the Item

After Andy Warhol Chanel No. 5 (Suite of Four Individual (Separate) Prints on Linen Canvas), 1996 Suite of Four (4) Separate Individual Limited Edition Offset lithographs in colors on wove paper affixed to elegant thin linen canvas backing, Each plate signed Andy Warhol 29 inches (vertical) × 22 inches horizontal (measurements here and above are for each print) Limited, special edition printing, exact number is undisclosed Unframed Dimensions apply to each of the four (4) prints in this one lot. “Chanel N˚5,” A special edition, printed under the auspices of the Warhol Foundation, comes from the artist’s "Ads" portfolio based on popular advertising campaigns and logos in American culture. Chanel No. 5, created by Ernest Beaux for Coco Chanel in 1921, became a product synonymous with sophistication and luxury, two qualities Warhol hoped to instill with his work. The rich hues of blue, red, and gold, and green brings this simple rectangular bottle to life. Due to the underlining criticism present throughout Warhol’’s oeuvre, works such as ‘”Chanel N˚5”’ have become modern day vanitas, alerting viewers to their own mortality and the superficiality of consumerism. The Chanel No. 5 perfume bottle stood alone as a product synonymous with sophistication and luxury. Today, Chanel perfume remains a household name, just as it was during the Warhol era. In 1997, Chanel revisited the image, with the Warhol Foundation's permission, for use in an advertising campaign that year. Many of these posters appeared on buses and public transportation throughout Paris. It is not known how many were printed, or how many remain today, but this gorgeous suite of four French vintage posters was done in a limited edition.

    By Robert Rauschenberg
    Located in New York, NY
    Robert Rauschenberg and Cris Gianakos RAUSCHENBERG (Scarce and collectible early invitation), 1970 Offset Lithograph Invitation 8 7/10 × 11 9/10 inches Unframed Offset lithograph invitation created on the occasion of Robert Rauschenberg's exhibition at SVA's Visual Arts Gallery in 1970. The poster was designed by Cristos Gianakos, who was also a professor at SVA, and the show was curated by Felice Wender, the director of Dayon's Gallery 12 in Minneapolis. The invitation states that "after completing its New York debut, the show will open at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in January 4, 1971 and continue through January 29, 1971. In May, 1971, Dayton's Gallery 12, Minneapolis, Minnesota will exhibit the new Rauschenberg works..." The text on this invitation additionally states that Rauschenberg said in a written statement about these works: "The image and the words cooperate to construct a flat re-reading of the facts plus familiar passing insignificancies that control our day. Information, originally engaged in a daily rhetorical screen to eliminate as much direct feeling and response as possible, re-exposed to encourage consideration..."
