Dracula is part of Myths
(Click on picture below to access the Catalogue Entry)

Dracula is a print of the notorious mythological character, which is featured in the artist’s Myths series. The print features a portrait of the character, with bright pink highlights against an obscured black background. From his earliest youth, films were a source of great fascination for Andy Warhol, so that in his comprehensive oeuvre he turned to film again and again. In 1973/74 he produced the horror film ‘Andy Warhol’s Dracula’ in collaboration with Paul Morrissey (screenplay and direction) after the classic text by Bram Stoker, although not much of the original is in evidence.

As with the joint production of “Frankenstein”, this was a low budget production with violence, sex, and idiosyncratic humor, which was not suited to a wide cinema audience. The film was a witty spoof on the various Dracula tropes, interspersed with homoerotic sex scenes and outrageous violence. The film has since become a cult classic.

The leading actor, Udo Kier as Count Dracula, was immortalized by Andy Warhol in a series of paintings and prints.
