Marilyn Monroe (Black and White) - Screenprint on Canvas 20" x 20"

Marilyn Monroe (Black and White) by WarHo™ is a 2025 screenprint on canvas that presents the star’s image in its most unembellished form. Free of color and stripped of diamond dust, the piece offers a quiet fidelity to the original black-and-white publicity photo by Gene Korman—the same source image that Warhol famously transformed in the early 1960s. Here, WarHo™ returns to that photographic origin, honoring its tonal range and cinematic softness while reasserting it within the language of Pop art through screenprinting.

WarHo™’s process-driven homage to Andy Warhol replicates not only the look but the labor behind Warhol’s iconic silkscreens. Each print is hand-pulled from screens the artist has created himself, allowing for the subtle variances that give each piece a distinct surface quality. By choosing not to incorporate diamond dust in this version, WarHo™ underscores a different kind of reverence—one focused on the structure of the image itself rather than the spectacle surrounding it. This restraint draws attention to the details: the halftone texture, the contrast of light and shadow, and the expressive geometry of Monroe’s face.

Marilyn Monroe (Black and White) occupies a unique place in the WarHo™ collection: it invites viewers to pause, to see the image anew, and to consider the enduring power of a face that has been reproduced, recolored, and reframed for over half a century.
