[ANDY WARHOL] (1928-1987)


Flesh.
Offset lithograph movie poster. 1015x685mm, 40 3/4x27 inches. 1968.

Warhol began making films in 1963. The 1968 production of Flesh was conceived and filmed during Warhol's gunshot wound recovery. The film gained attention when it was confiscated by British police for an obscenity charge at Open Space theatre in London during one of its 1970s showings.
