Steve Kaufman worked as an assistant to Andy Warhol at his Factory until 1989, when he opened his own studio in New York. Kaufman was particularly interested in the artistic effect produced by using images of icons such as Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, Elvis Presley, and John F. Kennedy. He also incorporated historical figures such as Beethoven, Mozart, or Shakespeare, and presented them like stars of today. Kaufman embellished his limited editions in an innovative way that endowed each print with a unique design. Today, Kaufman’s work is included in many major collections including the Amsterdam Museum, the Andy Warhol Foundation, and the Saatchi Collection. He also founded a charity, Give Kids A Break.
