Description
Moonwalk 404 Yellow by Andy Warhol
Warhol’s Moonwalk explores the overlapping boundaries of time. The translucent colors capture your gaze in classic Warhol fashion. No other artist can transform man’s first steps not he moon, and turn it into a screenshot from a movie.
Warhol created the Moonwalk Portfolio to commemorate the momentous achievement of the first man on the moon. He aptures the magic, drama, and fantasy of the moon walk. He know what the people want and sells it by making the unknown voyage cool.
The Moonwalk images by Andy Warhol were created in 1987 only months before his death.
Like any other great artist Andy was looking to the future. By using this landmark moment in history as the focus of his art work, he preserves the emotion that everyone felt as one Neil took “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.
