Prince /Warhol Article in the Daily Mail newspaper Lifestyle page (UK)
Buy Your Own Superstar The art crowd is abuzz this week with the launch of the Coskun gallery's Andy Warhols Celebrities exhibition. Timed for the gallery's tenth birthday, the show has more than a hundred works of art on view and confirms the Coskun's status as the leading pop art and Warhol exhibitor in the world. Highlights include a series of ten signed Mick Jagger portraits as well as Warhols portrait of Joan Collins (1985) Grace Jones (1986) and our personal favourite the very cool image of PRINCE(1984) . Prices range from £25,000 to £4 million, but if you've got money to burn, they say art is always a sound investment. Andy Warhol Celebrities will be on view at th Coskun Gallery from July 22 to 24 Coskun Fine Art 91-93 Walton Street London SW3 2HP. | |

[Edited 6/25/08 2:06am] Warhol died in 1987, so that was inspired by him. As you know Prince had a different look back in 1987 | |
