ANDY WARHOL (Pittsburgh, USA,1928-New York, USA,1987). "Lana Turner," 1985. Polaroid photograph. Unique copy. Attached certificate of provenance, indicating that the work comes from "Estate of Andy Warhol", and the "Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts". Measurements: 10,8 x 8,6 cm. Lana Turner was an American actress. Throughout her nearly 50-year career, she achieved fame as a pin-up model and film actress, as well as for her highly publicized personal life. By the mid-1940s, she was one of the highest-paid actresses in the United States and one of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's (MGM) biggest stars. Turner is considered a popular culture icon of Hollywood glamour and a screen legend of classic Hollywood cinema. Andrew Warhola, commonly known as Andy Warhol, was an American visual artist, filmmaker and music producer who played a crucial role in the birth and development of pop art. Considered in his time a guru of modernity, Warhol has been one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. The son of Slovakian immigrants, he began his art studies at the Carnegie Institute of Technology between 1945 and 1949. In the latter year, already established in New York, he began his career as an advertising cartoonist for various magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Seventeen and The New Yorker. At the same time he painted canvases whose subject matter was based on some element or image from the everyday environment, advertising or comics. Soon he began to exhibit in various galleries. He progressively eliminated from his works any expressionist trait until he reduced the work to a serial repetition of a popular element from mass culture, the world of consumerism or the media. This evolution reached its maximum level of depersonalization in 1962, when he began to use a mechanical silkscreen printing process as a working method, by means of which he systematically reproduced myths of contemporary society, the most representative examples of which are the series dedicated to Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Elizabeth Taylor or Mao Tse-tung, as well as his famous treatment of Campbell's soup cans, all works produced during the fruitful decade of the 1960s. This appropriationism, a constant in the works of the proponents of pop art, extended to works of art of a universal nature. By means of mass reproduction, he managed to strip the media fetishes he used of their usual referents and turn them into stereotyped icons with a merely decorative purpose. In 1963 he created the Factory, a workshop in which numerous figures from New York's underground culture gathered around him. The frivolity and extravagance that marked his way of life eventually established a coherent line between his work and his life's trajectory. He is currently represented in the most important contemporary art museums in the world, such as the MoMA, the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim in New York, the Fukoka Museum in Japan, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the National Art Museum of the 21st century in Rome, the MUMOK in Vienna, the SMAK in Ghent and the Tate Gallery in London, as well as in the museums that bear his name in Pittsburgh and Medzilaborce (Slovakia).

JOAN MIRÓ I FERRÀ (Barcelona, 1893 - Palma de Mallorca, 1983). "Miró, Museum of Modern Art Mexico". 1980. Lithograph on Arches vellum, copy 2/100. Signed, dedicated, dated and numbered in pencil. Publisher: Museo de Arte Moderno de México. Printer: Litografías Artística Damià Caus, Barcelona. Reproduced in Maeght Editeur "Miró Litógrafo VI", p. 148. Measurements: 76 x 56 cm; 97 x 77 x 4 cm (frame). This lithograph by Miró, limited to one hundred copies, was used for the poster announcing Joan Miró's exhibition in the Bosque de Chapultepec in the spring of 1980, at the Museum of Modern Art. Moons, stars, figures reduced to a few strokes in thick black enclosing in their interior primary colors... synthesize some of Joan Miró's soul constellations gathered in this image. Joan Miró was trained in Barcelona, and made his individual debut in 1918, in the Dalmau Galleries. In 1920 he moved to Paris and met Picasso, Raynal, Max Jacob, Tzara and the Dadaists. There, under the influence of surrealist poets and painters, he matures his style; he tries to transpose surrealist poetry to the visual, based on memory, fantasy and the irrational. His third exhibition in Paris, in 1928, was his first great triumph: the Museum of Modern Art in New York acquired two of his works. He returned to Spain in 1941, and that same year the museum dedicated a retrospective to him that would be his definitive international consecration. Throughout his life he received numerous awards, such as the Grand Prizes of the Venice Biennale and the Guggenheim Foundation, the Carnegie Prize for Painting, the Gold Medals of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Fine Arts, and was named Doctor Honoris Causa by the universities of Harvard and Barcelona. His work can currently be seen at the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona, as well as at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the MoMA in New York, the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, the National Gallery in Washington, the MNAM in Paris and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo.
