Andy Warhol created the Oxidization paintings in 1977 and 1978. These paintings stand as a testament to Warhol’s ingenuity and willingness to challenge artistic norms, especially at a time when he was critiqued for his business-art persona and common portraiture. Using a process involving urination on copper-coated canvases, Warhol transformed the bodily waste of his factory assistants and visitors into art, creating these curious pieces. The works, characterized by their visceral energy and elegant splashes, combine abstract aesthetics with highly transgressive methods. Warhol’s technique, a radical departure from his signature silkscreen method, resulted in abstract compositions that are both provocative and visually captivating.
