Andy Warhol’s Mao 96 is a bold and provocative portrait from his renowned Mao series, created in the early 1970s. Drawing from the official image of Chairman Mao Zedong, Warhol infused the work with vivid colors and expressive brushstrokes, transforming a symbol of political power into a piece of pop culture. Mao 96 exemplifies Warhol’s commentary on fame, propaganda, and the intersection of politics and celebrity.
