Marilyn Monroe
At for $195 million, Shot Sage Blue Marilyn (1964) became the most expensive 20th century artwork to go under the hammer. Ironically, artists from the pop art movement that started out in the 1950s in the USA and the UK made art that was meant to be mass-produced and low cost. Artist Richard Hamilton described pop art as “Popular (designed for a mass audience), Transient (short-term solution) and Expendable (easily forgotten)”. In his work, Warhol used imagery from popular culture like advertising, celebrities, mass-manufactured products. His subjects were perfectly tied in with his medium of choice — silkscreen printing.
