Marilyn #30" (1967) de Andy Warhol forma parte de la emblemática carpeta Marilyn del artista, una de sus series más célebres y solicitadas. De una edición de 250 ejemplares (esta obra lleva el número 138/250, con 26 pruebas de artista), la carpeta está representada en importantes instituciones, entre ellas el Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York.





Basadas en un fotograma publicitario de la película Niágara de 1953, las Marilyn de Warhol personifican su fascinación por las celebridades, los medios de comunicación de masas y el poder de la imagen reproducida. Cada una de las impresiones de la serie se creó con cinco pantallas -una con la imagen fotográfica y cuatro con zonas de color- deliberadamente superpuestas con tonos llamativos que a veces están ligeramente desalineados. Esta desalineación acentúa la tensión entre glamour y artificio, reflejando la frágil brillantez de la personalidad de Marilyn Monroe.





Los grabados "Marilyn", una de las obras que definen la obra de Warhol, siguen siendo iconos del arte pop, ya que fusionan el estrellato de Hollywood con la repetición mecánica de la serigrafía para crear una meditación atemporal sobre la fama, el deseo y la imagen.
