In series like Mao and Hammer and Sickle, Warhol pursues his interest in the relationship between the masses and the media. His silkscreen prints are now characterised by a freer, more expressive pictorial language. At the same time they acquire a monumental impact because the pictorial format is blown up so much (up to eleven metres).
The early films by Warhol included in the exhibition (for example, Empire, Kiss and Sleep) show how the two media continuously influenced one another in his work.
