Esquire
(May 1969)
One of the most iconic of Art Director George Lois’s creations, the May 1969 cover of Esquire juxtaposed the celebration of pop culture while deconstructing celebrity. The image of a drowning Andy Warhol was a friendly spoof of the artist’s famous Campbell Soup artwork, a pervading symbol of the Pop Art movement.

word critique
i really like this one because it expresses what Andy Warhol is about! He was know for painting a big picture of Campbell soup and called it pop art! So the picture of him drowning in the can represents what hes know for and does. plus its a really neat picture. The lighting of the picture seems to be coming from behind him in the picture,casting a light shadow in front of him
