Meaning & Analysis

Mobilgas (F. & S. II. 350) is one of a series of ten screen prints in Warhol’s Ads series, produced by the artist two years before his death. The inspiration for this series can be traced back to Warhol’s early career as a commercial illustrator in New York which sparked his interest in commercial and consumer culture. Printed on Lenox Museum Board, this print exemplifies how Warhol transformed corporate advertisements from the 1950s into desirable works of art. Elevating everyday advertisements to the status of art, Warhol breaks down the boundary between high and low culture, prompting one to consider what can be classified as art.

Warhol’s use of bold and vibrant colours in this print reflects a characteristic element of his artistic style. Warhol adopts everyday and commonplace imagery but reinvigorates these quotidian images with colour, turning ordinary objects and symbols into Pop Art icons.

  • Andy Warhol was a leading figure of the Pop Art movement and is often considered the father of Pop Art. Born in 1928, Warhol allowed cultural references of the 20th century to drive his work. From the depiction of glamorous public figures, such as Marilyn Monroe, to the everyday Campbell’s Soup Can, the artist challenged what was considered art by blurring the boundaries between high art and mass consumerism. Warhol's preferred screen printing technique further reiterated his obsession with mass culture, enabling art to be seen as somewhat of a commodity through the reproduced images in multiple colour ways.
