About the work

Andy Warhol saw the famous portrait of Goethe by J. H. Wilhelm Tischbein during a visit to the Städel Museum. As the epitome of German culture, it inspired him to create this work and other prints, some of which are also in the Städel collection. In 1962, Warhol, a key figure in American Pop Art, began to reproduce press photos of celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley in silkscreen prints. He used shrill colours and a striking two-dimensionality to distort the original images, which had become known worldwide through the media. With the serial production in his studio, which he himself referred to as a factory, the classic characteristics of art such as subjectivity and originality recede. At the same time, he reflects the changed perception of reality through mass media images in those days compared to today: Goethe, the superstar of the Städel, the city of Frankfurt and German classicism.

Adolf Luther  (German, 1912 -1990)

Virtuelles Bild (Spiegelobjekt),  1966 –1967

https://sammlung.staedelmuseum.de/en/work/virtuelles-bild-spiegelobjekt

In 1966 the autodidact Adolf Luther put aside canvas, paint and paintbrush and made use of his actual surroundings and spherical concave mirrors as the material and technique for his artistic praxis. He worked initially with single concave mirror objects. These refract the light, reflect it and thus show to impressive advantage the interplay of transparent space and the immaterial energy of light. From 1970 onwards Luther transferred the atmospheric effect of the concave mirror into the real space in his serially arranged and multi-perspectivally focused integrations.

For the artist, whose vocation came late and who was loosely associated with the Düsseldorf ZERO group, architecture was part of a world that was in constant movement. In his objects and installations, it is expanded by the kinetic potential of light.
