Description
This original exhibition poster, created for a special Andy Warhol show at Ace Gallery, stands as a striking artifact of contemporary art history. It depicts Native American civil rights leader Russell Means, rendered through Warhol’s unmistakable style. Means—widely recognized for his central role in the American Indian Movement and his advocacy for Native rights—is immortalized here in an image that merges art, politics, and cultural identity. The poster bears Warhol’s hand-signed signature and date, “85,” in felt-tip pen, adding both authenticity and personal connection to the artwork. This detail transforms the work from a mere promotional piece into a highly collectible object, underscoring the fact that it was personally handled by the artist himself. Executed as an offset lithograph, the poster is beautifully framed and accompanied by its original Certificate of Authenticity, further affirming its provenance and significance.
