“100 Cans,” created by Andy Warhol in 1962, is an oil painting that belongs to the Pop Art movement and falls under the still life genre. The artwork is housed at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY, US.
The artwork, titled “100 Cans,” depicts a repetitive grid showing 100 identical Campbell’s Soup cans. Arranged meticulously in a 10 by 10 formation, each can is rendered with striking uniformity, highlighting the theme of mass production and consumer culture, characteristic of Warhol’s work. The utilization of vibrant red and white hues draws the viewer’s attention to the branding, emphasizing the intersection of commercial art and fine art in the Pop Art movement.
