Set against a bold patriotic red, at first glance Andy Warhol's 'Bald Eagle' is a stately expression of American pride. However, not dissimilar to his earlier depictions of the Statue of Liberty and Jacqueline Kennedy, 'Bald Eagle' is anything but pomp and circumstance.⠀
.⠀
Born out of a discussion with the art dealers and long-time political and environmental activists, Ronald and Frayda Feldman, Warhol's series 'Endangered Species' features a portfolio of ten magnificently diverse animals from across the globe — all of which, by the 1980s, had been prominently featured on the Endangered Species List. ⠀
.⠀
Portrayed in a vibrant array of electrifying rainbow colors, Warhol's 'Endangered Species' series exposes the troubling number of nearly extinct animals throughout the world from African elephants to pine barrens tree frogs, giant pandas, and silverspot butterflies. With this canvas, the artist creates a dynamic tension between art and reality. ⠀
