From Warhol to Corno

At the beginning of her career, Corno said about herself: “I am the new Andy Warhol.” It is this energy that has been immortalised in this memorable painting - an homage to a towering figure who was both a model and an inspiration to her. This is one of the most striking portraits Corno ever created. The Pop Art master appears on a stark black background which contrasts with the luminous face. Enigmatic with both a timid yet provocative stare, Andy Warhol perhaps represents a guardian angel who made Corno progress and still protects her.
