Warhol's banana became a Pop Art symbol

Warhol's banana print has been popularized by the story behind the Velvet Underground and Nico album (1967). Warhol's banana sticker was edited in 1967 for the cover of the album. At that time, album owners could peal the sticker just like a banana skin to let appear the fruit underneath. Much of the commercial success of the first record was due to Warhol's creative innovation on the cover design. Decades after the band broke up, Warhol's banana rose as a powereful symbol for the pop culture, and the original peel-off sticker album is now a hot collectible piece.

Warhol

Pop Culture artwork by Andy Warhol Andy Warhol is without a doubt the first name to come to mind when thinking about the Pop Art culture. His iconic work focused mainly on celebrity culture, artistic expression, and advertisement, which were all prominent in the 1960s. He utilized a variety of media including hand drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, silk screening, sculpture, film, and music. Warhol also lived openly as a homosexual man before the gay liberation movement began. He had His Factory, where intellectuals, drag queens, playwrights, Bohemian street people, Hollywood celebrities, and wealthy patrons would collaborate. The Pop Artist produced extraordinarily valuable pieces, including some of the most expensive paintings ever to be sold. While never traditionally thought of as a popular consumer product before, Warhol’s work opened up the ideas of mass-production and mass-appeal into the art world.
