<div><font face=Lato size=3>Andy Warhol’s <em>Mao</em> (1972) is one of the artist’s most iconic and provocative screenprints, reflecting his fascination with the intersection of political power and celebrity culture. This impression, numbered 244/250, comes from the regular edition of 250, in addition to 50 artist’s proofs. Warhol based the image on the widely circulated official portrait of Chairman Mao Zedong, a figure whose likeness was omnipresent in China during the Cultural Revolution.

تُعد لوحة "ماو" (1972) للفنان آندي وارهول واحدة من أكثر مطبوعات الفنان الأيقونية والاستفزازية التي تعكس افتتانه بالتقاطع بين السلطة السياسية وثقافة المشاهير. تأتي هذه الطبعة المرقمة بـ 244/250 من الطبعة العادية المكونة من 250 نسخة، بالإضافة إلى 50 نسخة تجريبية للفنان. استند وارهول في رسم الصورة على الصورة الرسمية المتداولة على نطاق واسع للرئيس ماو تسي تونغ، وهي شخصية كان شبيهها منتشراً في كل مكان في الصين خلال الثورة الثقافية. من خلال إعادة تخيل الصورة من خلال لوحة البوب الزاهية، حوّل وارهول رمزًا للسلطة السياسية إلى أيقونة ثقافية منتجة على نطاق واسع.





في هذا الإصدار، يظهر وجه ماو في هذه النسخة باللون الأزرق الغامق اللافت للنظر، يقابله قميص أخضر على خلفية فيروزية. تضفي الاختيارات اللونية الجريئة على الصورة طابعاً درامياً وساخراً في آنٍ واحد، مما يزعزع استقرار السلطة الدعائية الأصلية للصورة. ويزيد وارهول من حدة هذا التوتر من خلال وضع طبقات الشاشة الحريرية المسطحة والميكانيكية الميكانيكية جنباً إلى جنب مع الزخارف الرسامية، مما يطمس الخط الفاصل بين الإنتاج الضخم والتعبير الفردي.





شكلت سلسلة "ماو" فصلاً جديداً في مسيرة وارهول المهنية في السبعينيات، حيث تحولت من نجوم هوليوود إلى شخصيات ذات تأثير عالمي. واليوم، تُعتبر هذه الأعمال بمثابة بيانات أساسية حول طبيعة السلطة والشهرة والانتشار الواسع للصورة في الثقافة المعاصرة.
