Description
In this painting, Warhol depicts all of the jean labels of the companies that produced jeans at the time. He puts the label of Levis, Calvin Klein, Lee, Sasson , Sergio Valentes, Jordache, Wrangler, and Brittania. Each label is basically copied onto the canvas, having any and all smaller words that would be present on the label on the painting. Continuing the Pop Art motif of consumerism and using ads and propaganda to make art, Warhol's Jean Labels painting speaks on the consumerist society and the companies that are geared towards them.
