Artwork Title: The Scream (after Munch)

The Scream (after Munch), 1984

Andy Warhol

Munch’s The Scream is one of most instantly recognizable motifs in both art history and popular culture. An existential cry for the struggle of mankind, the composition is one of the artist’s darkest and most challenging works. In this impression, Warhol makes some radical changes to the original motif, emphasizing the basic features of the figure to create a cartoon-like face and exchanging the sombre tones of Munch’s work for his own choice of unique, bright clashing color combinations.
