In Wayne Gretzky #99, Andy Warhol turns hockey's greatest player into a Pop icon. Working from one of his own Polaroids, Warhol shows Gretzky in his Edmonton Oilers jersey, overlaid with loose, gestural drawn lines and bold blocks of colour. Made at the height of Gretzky's fame, the print extends Warhol's lifelong fascination with celebrity from Hollywood to the world of sport. It remains one of his most celebrated sports portraits and a favorite among collectors of both art and sporting memorabilia.
