Pephistory of Art
Pepe Marilyn
Andy Warhol transformed the language of art by embracing the visual codes of consumer culture. Soup cans, Coca-Cola bottles, and movie stars were turned into icons, repeated through the mechanical process of silkscreen printing. His Marilyn series exemplifies the paradox of Pop: glamour flattened into commodity, individuality dissolved into reproducibility. Warhol blurred the boundary between irony and devotion, critique and celebration, showing a world where the image itself was mass-produced and consumed like any product.
