Andy Warhol’s Electric Chair is one of the most striking and thought-provoking works from his Death and Disaster series. Created in the 1960s and 1970s, Warhol explores themes of mortality, media sensationalism, as well as the intersection of art and reality. 

Electric Chair is based on a press photograph of the death chamber at Sing Sing prison, where executions took place in the mid-20th century. By repeating and reinterpreting this stark image with bold, unexpected colors, Warhol transforms a symbol of death into a haunting yet mesmerizing piece of contemporary art. 

A rare and iconic work, Electric Chair remains a significant commentary on the influence of media in shaping public perception. This piece is a must-have for collectors seeking an impactful and historically resonant work from one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
