Picture of the Week #190 "Andy Warhol Coming Out of a Tomato Soup Can" Santa Monica California 1977 / 2012 Signed and Stamped

Recently I revamped this old image of Andy Warhol coming out of a tomato soup can for the Mouche Gallery in Beverly Hills. I had done this image back in 1977 where Andy was in a Beef and Noodle can. When Keiko Noah the owner director of Mouche asked for this image 40" X 60" I tried using the original file but it was not large enough to reproduce clearly. So I reshot the can, only today the cans have pull tops, so Jack Duganne my master printer and I had to photoshop the original cover which also had 19 cents stamped on the lid. The new can cost me $1.39. I also felt that tomato soup was more fitting then beef and noodle.
