Item Description
STEVE KAUFMAN “MARTINI” ORIGINAL OIL LITHOGRAPH ON CANVAS, 20"x20"
46/100, signed by the artist.
Known for his association with Andy Warhol, Steve Alan Kaufman (December 29, 1960 - February 12, 2010) was a great American pop artist, activist and humanitarian. With the encouragement of his mother, Kaufman had his first show at the age of 8 at a Jewish Temple in the Bronx where he grew up. At just 14 he attained a scholarship to the Parsons School of Design, while going on to attend Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts (SVA) where he met contemporary artists such as Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
By 16, Kaufman was going to Studio 54 and mixing with denizens of the 70’s New York art scene. In 1981 Kaufman met Andy Warhol, who became a significant influence on the 19-year-old Kaufman, who worked under Warhol as his assistant at his studio, The Factory, producing original paintings and silkscreens.
After graduating from SVA with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, Kaufman held art shows in London and eventually left The Factory to establish his own studio, named “SAK”, after the nickname Warhol had given to him based on his initials.
This limited edition, original piece of pop art makes the perfect addition to any home bar!
