From Endangered Species de 1983 by Ronald Feldman.
In 1983, Andy Warhol created a series of ten color silkscreens depicting endangered animals from around the world: Siberian tiger, San Francisco tiger, orangutan, Grevy's zebra, black rhinoceros, bighorn sheep ram, African elephant, tree frog. Pine Barrens, giant panda and bald eagle. Using vivid colors - characteristic of his distinctive style - and touching expressions that evoke the animal's fate, Warhol creates a dynamic tension between art and reality.
The Endangered Species Portfolio was commissioned by Ronald and Frayda Feldman, long-time political activists and environmentalists who support innovative art projects and installations through their art gallery, Ronald Feldman Fine Art, New York.
