About the Work

“Marilyn Monroe has fascinated me since I was a child… When I was presented with the opportunity to make art of Marilyn based on photos by Milton H. Greene from 1956, when she was at the height of her powers, I was struck by the images’ intimacy and vulnerability. To me, these images called for a much more delicate approach compared to Warhol’s in order to convey more nuance and humanity… I felt it was important to depict her precarious dance between wide-eyed aspiration and shying away from the glare of the spotlight. I hope these images, ‘Marilyn Sunrise’ and ‘Marilyn Sunset,’ inspire an empathetic look at Marilyn’s complex humanity and remind us that we are all teetering between strength and fragility.” — Shepard Fairey
