“The American Indian (Russell Means) is a rare exception in Warhol’s work, for it comes closer to a traditional portrait painting than most of the artist’s other work. Warhol asked the American Indian activist to sit for him after the two met at a gallery opening. Warhol photographed Means, screened the photograph onto several canvases, and overpainted each image using different colors.

The work at the Denver Art Museum is the largest of the known canvases and the only one with a palette limited to black, gray, silver, and white.”
