Andy Warhols Grace Kelly (1984) ist ein schillernder Siebdruck, der einen der berühmtesten Stars Hollywoods, der später Fürstin von Monaco wurde, unsterblich macht. Dieser Abdruck, einer von 30 Künstlerabzügen neben der regulären Auflage von 225 Stück, zeigt Kelly mit strahlend kanariengelbem Haar auf türkisfarbenem Grund. Ihr Gesicht, das durch Warhols scharfe Siebdruckkonturen wiedergegeben wird, ist sofort erkennbar und wird gleichzeitig zu einem kühnen grafischen Emblem.





Das Bild basiert auf einem Filmstill aus Fourteen Hours (1951), Kellys Leinwanddebüt, das Warhol mit seiner typischen Pop-Sensibilität neu interpretiert. Indem er ihre Gesichtszüge mit lebhaften Farbkontrasten isoliert und intensiviert, steigert er sowohl den Glamour der Schauspielerin als auch den konstruierten Charakter von Promi-Bildern. Der türkisfarbene Hintergrund hebt sich von Kellys leuchtendem Haar ab und unterstreicht Warhols Beherrschung der Farbe als Mittel der Verführung und Abstraktion.





Grace Kelly entstand in einer Zeit, in der Warhol die großen Ikonen seiner früheren Karriere wieder aufgriff, und verkörpert seine Faszination für Schönheit, Ruhm und kulturelle Mythenbildung. Das Werk destilliert Kellys Präsenz zu einem zeitlosen Symbol - gleichzeitig eine Feier ihrer filmischen Anziehungskraft und eine Meditation über die Verwandlung des Stars in eine Legende.
