Meaning & Analysis

As with many other works in his oeuvre, Warhol uses a photograph to form the basis of this striking screen print and manipulates the original image with a bold, surreal colour palette. The use of saturated hues and graphic style immortalise with an intense commercial aesthetic that works to exemplify a 1980s Pop Art icon. Created as promotional material for the release of a film, this print exemplifies Warhol’s willingness to self-publicise and play into the mechanisms American popular culture.

Although Turtle does not form part of a series by Warhol, it is reminiscent of his famed Endangered Species series (1983) that was published just two years before. In the later stages of his career, Warhol was commissioned a number of times to create images that would raise awareness of endangered animals and environmental issues. This print works within a similar format, using a vivid colour palette to create an unmissable image of the animal kept in captivity.

  • 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.
