Campbell's Soup Cans
Andy Warhol (1962)
Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Cans turns a shelf-staple into <strong>art</strong>, using a gridded array of near-identical red-and-white cans to fuse <strong>branding</strong> with <strong>painting</strong>. By repeating 32 flavors—Tomato, Clam Chowder, Chicken Noodle, and more—the work stages a clash between <strong>mass production</strong> and the artist’s hand <sup>[1]</sup><sup>[3]</sup>.
