About the Artwork
Warhol’s Joseph Beuys portraits, developed around 1980, bring two influential postwar artists into dialogue. Beuys was known for performance, sculpture, conceptual work and his distinctive felt hat, while Warhol transformed his likeness using reproducible image-making methods. The State II, State III and In Memoriam references are kept as separate titles to avoid confusing different versions of the source composition.
Visual Character and Composition
The portrait is direct and intense: the hat and centered face make Beuys recognizable, while the print’s graphic treatment pushes the likeness toward iconography. Rather than treating the image as neutral decoration, the design invites viewers to look at how line, repetition, recognizable imagery and visual framing can change our experience of a familiar subject.
