Grace Kelly (1984) d'Andy Warhol est une sérigraphie éblouissante qui immortalise l'une des stars les plus emblématiques d'Hollywood, devenue princesse de Monaco. Cette impression, l'une des 30 épreuves d'artiste en dehors de l'édition normale de 225 exemplaires, représente Kelly avec une chevelure jaune canari rayonnante sur un fond turquoise. Son visage, rendu par les contours nets sérigraphiés par Warhol, est à la fois immédiatement reconnaissable et transformé en un emblème graphique audacieux.





L'image est basée sur une photo de film tirée de Fourteen Hours (1951), le premier film de Kelly à l'écran, que Warhol réimagine avec sa sensibilité Pop. En isolant et en intensifiant ses traits avec des contrastes de couleurs vibrantes, il accentue à la fois le glamour de l'actrice et la nature construite de l'imagerie de la célébrité. Le fond turquoise vibre contre les cheveux lumineux de Kelly, soulignant la maîtrise de la couleur par Warhol en tant qu'outil d'allure et d'abstraction.





Créée à une époque où Warhol revisitait les grandes icônes de son début de carrière, Grace Kelly résume sa fascination pour la beauté, la célébrité et la création de mythes culturels. L'œuvre distille la présence de Kelly en un symbole intemporel - à la fois une célébration de son allure cinématographique et une méditation sur la transformation de la star en légende.
