After Warhol: Uniques | 2021
Almost 60 years after its 1964 release, Andy Warhol's iconic Pop Art interpretation of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis has been reinvented by the London-based artist Paul Stephenson for a contemporary collection of original art.
Available in 40 different colourways, these hand-painted silkscreens were created using Warhol's original acetate. Used to imprint the image onto a silkscreen, this clear sheet was the last part of the process to be touched by hand by Warhol and now provides Paul with the exclusive key to the authentic reproduction of this seminal portrait of the former First Lady of the United States.
"The end result is exactly what you would see in a Warhol painting hanging in a Tate Modern retrospective exhibition," says Paul, whose groundbreaking After Warhol project saw his work titled 'posthumous Warhols' by the late Warholian expert Rainer Crone. "At all stages of making these paintings, it's always been about following the process and being accurate and true to what Warhol did."

The artist
Paul Stephenson
Researching and recreating the practices first established by Andy Warhol, London-based artist Paul has dedicated the last decade to creating After Warhol. Created using the Pop Art founder's original acetate, the artist recreates Warhol's iconic Cow series.
"These one-off/unique colourways came about quite organically as part of following Andy Warhol's process. He experimented with making multiple 'colourways', he talked about people getting a Warhol that would match the drapes/curtains. Making unique one-off colours felt like a natural progression of that Warholian idea."
'The process for making these unique colour involves hand painting the background colours. Even using the same pigments and same brand of paint that Warhol used. The end result is exactly what you would see on a Warhol painting hanging in the Tate retrospective right now.'
