Bringing Andy Warhol's work to life | 2020

Paul Stephenson

Bringing Andy Warhol's work to life | 2020

One of the things we love at Castle Fine Art is a fantastic story behind a collection. And it may be hard to top that of London-based artist Paul Stephenson, whose After Warhol collection has seen him dedicate over a decade to rendering the methodology of Andy Warhol using his original acetates. Described as 'posthumous Warhols' by the world's foremost Warhol expert, Professor Rainer Crone, the works ask important questions about the authorship of art.

Paul's new medium of silkscreens on paper is in keeping with the Pop Art founder's philosophy (and our own!) that art shouldn't just be for the elite. Paul adds: "Warhol wanted his art to be accessible so everyone could own or enjoy it. An art gallery on the high street selling Warhols in 2020 is pure Warhol."

We're exhibiting numerous works by Paul throughout our Bath, Brighton, Manchester, Liverpool, Mailbox, St Christopher's Place, Cardiff and Newcastle galleries. Visit our galleries page here for contact information

Paul Stephenson

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.'
