Absolut Vodka today announced the launch of a limited-edition bottle commemorating the rediscovery of a long-lost Andy Warhol painting. The new bottle, which features a vibrant screen-printed design inspired by Warhol’s iconic “blue” painting, is a tribute to the artist’s groundbreaking collaboration with Absolut nearly four decades ago.
In 1985, Andy Warhol, the renowned pop artist, created two unique paintings for Absolut Vodka. The first, a bold and colorful rendition of the Absolut bottle, became an instant classic and helped solidify Absolut’s status as a brand synonymous with art and culture. For decades, the existence of a second Warhol Absolut painting remained a rumor, with only a few grainy photographs to support its existence.
