Andy WARHOL - Space Fruit: Pears (FS II.203)

Space Fruit: Pears 203 by Andy Warhol exemplifies his modern approach to the still life genre. With its bright colors of green and pink, Warhol demonstrates more interest in the drawing’s vibrancy than its realism. His use of shadow and detailed lines on the pears gives the fruit more of a realistic quality as they become more 3-Dimensional. With the help of printer, Rubert Jasen Smith, Warhol was able to complete his Space Fruit series in 1979.
