Original Andy Warhol Movie Posters

Andy Warhol movie posters exist at the unique intersection of cinema art and fine art collecting — promotional materials for films that blurred the line between underground cinema and the art world, produced by a figure who was simultaneously the most commercially successful artist of his generation and a serious experimental filmmaker. The avant-garde films he produced and directed through The Factory in the 1960s represent a genuinely distinct collecting category: part cinema ephemera, part art world document. The films directed by Paul Morrissey under Warhol's production banner — Flesh (1968), Trash (1970), and Heat (1972) — starring Joe Dallesandro as the Factory's unlikely leading man, generated campaign materials that reflect the downtown New York aesthetic of their moment: grainy, confrontational, and entirely confident in their own marginality. Edie Sedgwick appears in materials from the mid-1960s Factory films that are now among the most sought-after items in this collection. Candy Darling and Holly Woodlawn broadened the visual vocabulary of the later Morricone productions. The avant-garde film works — Chelsea Girls (1966) in its split-screen format, the extreme-duration early silents — produced promotional materials in small print runs — any surviving piece is a significant find. These items circulated primarily in art world and underground cinema contexts, not mainstream theatrical distribution, which means survival rates are radically lower than for commercial film campaigns. Available to buy across formats from lobby cards to one-sheets, with international variants from the European art cinema circuit that distributed Warhol's work to festival audiences.
