Step into the dazzling world of Andy Warhol and Marilyn Monroe with our specialists, Jess Bromovsky and Louisa Earl — one final photograph, a burst of pop art, and the birth of a cultural phenomenon.
In this recording, we unpack how Warhol’s Marilyn went from a 1950s publicity still to the single most powerful image in the 20th-century art market.
We explore:
🎬 How a single still from Marilyn’s 1953 film Niagara became the source for a series of iconic silkscreens.
🎨 Why Warhol’s use of bold colourways, repetition and screen-printing transformed a celebrity portrait into a symbol — not just of fame, but of mass media, identity and myth.
📈 How the 1967 Marilyn portfolio established a template for modern limited-edition prints — and how, over decades, the “Marilyn effect” turned prints into high-stakes investments.
🔎 The darker side: how fame, tragedy and reproduction stripped context — turning Marilyn’s final image into something iconic and frozen in time.
🌍 Why, even today, across generations and continents, the Warhol–Marilyn pairing remains instantly recognisable and endlessly seductive.
Whether you’re a pop-art aficionado, a fan of Monroe, or simply curious how a single photograph reshaped the art market, this video shows why “Marilyn” became more than an image.
