Mao 2019 | Framed Set of Four

London-based artist Paul has spent the last decade researching Andy Warhol’s working process and uses Warhol’s original acetates to create his stunning After Warhol collection.

Dubbed ‘posthumous Warhols’ by the world’s leading Warholian authority, Rainer Crone, the artworks were printed in New York by the Pop Art founder’s original screen printer, Alexander Heinrici, and have been lauded by the BBC and VICE Magazine. Find out more about how they’re created here.

This set of all four colourways is inspired by Andy Warhol’s ‘Mao Tse-tung’ series (1973), which depicts the Chinese leader and Communist revolutionary. Warhol was fascinated by the prevalence of his image in the public sphere as a ready-made icon, and with a suggestion from his long-time dealer Bruno Bischofberger created nearly 200 canvases of Chairman Mao in five different sizes.

Available in four colourways:

• Cadmium Red Medium, Mars Red, Cadmium Yellow Medium
• Indo Orange Red, Prussian Blue
• Permanent Green Light, Cadmium Red Medium, Cadmium Yellow Medium
• Cadmium Orange and Indo Orange Red, Phthalo Green, Acra Blue Violet
