I Love Your Kiss Forever

Colored screen printing edited by Sunday B. Morning. In this work Andy Warhol, keen observer, imitates the ad's strategy of fragmentation and he concentrates on some parts of the great Hollywood diva Marilyn Monroe's body. The screen printing depicts one of the sexier parts of the actress, her lips, which are repeated five times using different colors, a clear manifestation of the obsession the artist had with the Star.

Screen printing edited with high quality inks and Sunday B Morning authorized, printed after Andy Warhol's passing by an editor contemporary to the artist.

In 1967 Andy Warhol created a portfolio with Marilyn Monroe portrait taken from Niagara film's poster. The portfolio contained 10 screen prints and then it was printed in original edition of 250 copies. All the 250 prints of the original edition were signed by the artist, some with pencil and numbered overleaf, some with pen and others with only the initial name and surname. Apart from this edition, there were 26 tests by author, signed and marked with a letter from A to Z. The first edition by Marilyn and Flowers were a great success and people hoped for a second edition of these prints. In 1970 while Warhol worked with his German and Belgian printers for his european exhibition, they proposed him to re-prints the Marilyn and Flowers portfolio for show it to european people, but Warhol refused the proposal with european edition. However the original screen prints will be brought in Europe and was produced the first print not authorized with a little different colors from originals. The edition of 250 un authorized copies were marked overleaf with this phrasal: Published by Sunday B. Morning” and “Fill with your own signature”. Andy Warhol accepted those european prints because he knew the printers and decided to sign some prints with: “This is not by me”, which were great success. So Sunday B. Morning published the prints of original screen prints. The later editions were published with original colors, not numbered and marked with blue ink instead black ink for difference by the first edition.

if you LIVE IN EU

If you live in Europe (CEE) the price we show you already includes taxes. The works are taxed either with VAT exposed (22%) or VAT with the margin, if you are a private person you do not change anything, if you are a company: in In the first case, you will recover the VAT, in the second, no. When you put the works in the cart you will be separated from the vat exposed.

If you DON'T LIVE IN EU and you want an EXTRA EU shipping

Many works (not all) have an exposed VAT of 22% included in the price, this vat will be spun off! Obviously you will pay the VAT to your destination country, if due.
