Steve Kaufman – Homage to Genius – Einstein – Screenprint on Canvas with Hand Embellishment

$3,600 This screenprint on canvas with hand embellishment by pop artist Steve Kaufman, a former Andy Warhol assistant, depicts Albert Einstein from his “Homage to Genius” series in bold white against a vivid red ground. Einstein’s iconic wild hair and mustache are rendered through Kaufman’s signature high-contrast screenprinting technique, with loose, gestural brushstrokes in cream and pale yellow layered over the print to add movement and a painterly hand-finished quality. The result is a striking, graphic portrait that captures both the humor and reverence Kaufman brought to his depictions of historical icons. Signed “Peace and Respect/SAK” verso and numbered 178/195, the piece includes its certificate of authenticity.
