DFace - MICHAEL JACKSON FOR SALE, by met on Oct 26, 2022 23:17:42 GMT 1, D*FACE Michael Jackson (Orange), 2012 Acrylic on canvas 43 1/4 x 43 1/4 in 110 x 110 cm
Necro-paedo-tastic.
A majority here will already know the main source image for this piece. Or they will have guessed, just because they're observant and pay attention to recognisable artistic styles.
But for the benefit of anyone who doesn't know, the D*Face is based on one of the works from a series created by Andy Warhol — when he was commissioned by TIME magazine in 1984 to make a portrait of Michael Jackson:
Warhol diary excerpts:
March 7, 1984: I finished the Michael Jackson cover. I didn’t like it but the office kids did. Then the Time people came down to see it, about forty of them. And they stood around saying that it should increase news stand sales. . . . Then later the Time guy called me . . . and said they were going to use it. I think the yellow one. And I told him to cross his fingers that it wouldn’t get bumped on Saturday and he said he would.
March 12, 1984: Time came out and the Jackson cover made it, it didn’t get bumped. And the article inside was crazy. It had them asking if he was going to get a sex-change operation and he said no. The cover should have had more blue. I gave them some in the style of the Fonda cover I did for Time once, but they wanted this style.
__________
If forced at gunpoint to hang a Michael Jackson in my home, I would probably choose Fairytale Cottage by Banksy, a contemporary take on Hansel and Gretel.
Santa's Ghetto 2006 original version:
Dramatically cropped, slightly reworked, and reframed Banksy vs Bristol Museum 2009 version (late addition to the show, installed as part of a mock shrine about 24 hours after Jackson's death):
Original painting, From Beyond the Stars (2005), that Banksy bought from the artist Tom Ormond:
