This fall, global home decor brand, Yellowpop joins forces with The Andy Warhol Foundation on a special limited-edition collection of neon lights to celebrate one of the world’s most prolific and beloved visual artists of the 20th century, Andy Warhol (1928-1987). Inspired by the Pop art legend’s most iconic works, the collection of LED neon art designs aims to bring Warhol’s work to life through a new lens, reintroducing his art to people and highlighting his creative process.
The licensed collaboration features six of Warhol’s most celebrated artworks in LED neon form inspired by the late artist’s cutting edge yet playful approach to art. This limited-edition collection includes Flowers, Campbell’s soup can, Banana, Cow, Brillo and most notably Marilyn, inspired by Warhol’s iconic ‘Shots Sage Blue Marilyn”, which recently set a new record as the most expensive painting from the 20th century sold at an auction. Two of the Yellowpop neon designs, the Four Marilyns and the Flowers Deluxe sets will include a Yellowpop NFT, where holders can access exclusive membership perks such as a lifetime discount, early collection drops and exclusive events. Available in limited quantities of 500 per neon design and 25 per deluxe set, each individual Yellowpop neon will include a numbered official certificate of authenticity.
“Through his foundation, Andy Warhol has always been at the top of our wish list for a collaboration. With this collection and campaign, we pay homage to Warhol’s legacy as one of the greatest artists by highlighting his most iconic pieces of work in a new form”, said Jeremy Cortial, co-founder of Yellowpop.
“The foundation is delighted to work with Yellowpop to introduce a unique collection of LED neons inspired by Warhol’s timeless works of art,” said Michael Dayton Hermann of the Warhol Foundation. “Figuratively and now, quite literally, Warhol’s lasting influence continues to shine bright.”
The Yellowpop x Andy Warhol collection is available for purchase in limited quantities starting October 13 online at yellowpop.com. Customers can gain early access to the collection on October 12 by signing up on Yellowpop’s website starting from September 30.
Pricing for the Yellowpop x Andy Warhol collection ranges between $329-$2,499.
