‘Alexander the Great’: From mounting Andy Warhol’s first and last gallery exhibitions and introducing an American audience to #Surrealism, to shaping the careers and movements of those with whom he forged personal and lasting friendships, 20th-century art dealer Alexander Iolas was the “proto-Gagosian” of his day at the dawn of the era of the mega gallery and the celebrity artist. In 1982, Iolas, nicknamed Alexander the Great, commissioned Warhol to create an image of the Greek emperor for the ‘Searching for Alexander’ exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Depicting the victorious leader in harsh profile, gazing into the distance against a blood red background, the depiction constitutes one of Warhol’s greatest explorations into the power of the portrait, and the effect of self-image: something both the artist and Iolas were acutely aware of. The screenprint is part of a selection of #paintings, #sculpture, #furniture, #prints and #jewellery formerly in the collection of Alexander Iolas, to be offered at auction in #London on 25 May. #AndyWarhol
