200 Campbell Soup Cans

1962

by Andy Warhol

In July 1962 Andy Warhol exposed his Soup Can's for the very first time. In total he painted 32 Campbell's Soup Cans in the manner that they were displayed in grocery shops: next to eachother and at equal distances.

This piece of art was a provocation against the artistic society as he brought supermarkets and art galleries to the same level.
