LIMITED EDITION OF 500. EACH PIECE COMES NUMBERED AND WITH A CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY.
Warhol created Brillo Box as part of his series of commercial product sculptures, which also included Kellogg's, Heinz and Campbell's Soup boxes. The series was intended to challenge traditional notions of art and raise questions about commercialization, value and authenticity. Through Brillo Box, Warhol explored the idea that everyday objects could be elevated to the status of art simply by the context in which they were presented: a gallery or a museum. This led to a radical rethinking of what could be considered art and opened the way for philosophical debates about the nature of originality and reproduction in art.
The ordinary appearance of Brillo Box was perceived as a critique of consumer culture and a reflection on the superficiality of capitalist society, which transforms banal objects into icons of desire. The work also plays with irony: by replicating something as mundane as a box of cleaning products, Warhol blurs the lines between art and commerce, while challenging elitism in art by asserting that "everything is art" and "everyone can make art".
