Description:
Andy Warhol’s From Electric Chairs (1971) is part of one of the artist’s most striking and conceptually charged series, exploring the theme of mortality and the aesthetics of violence through repetition and color. Derived from a press photograph of the execution chamber at Sing Sing Prison, the Electric Chairs series transforms a stark image of state power into a haunting Pop icon.
Executed as a color screenprint and published by Bruno Bischofberger, Zurich, this edition of 250 is hand-signed, dated, and inscribed “Copyright” by Warhol on the verso. Each print’s vibrant chromatic variations underscore Warhol’s fascination with serial imagery, detachment, and the cultural consumption of tragedy. Illustrated in Feldman & Schellmann II.83, From Electric Chairs stands as one of the most powerful and thought-provoking works in Warhol’s graphic oeuvre.
