In this artwork, how is the Colored soup cans of the Variations elucidated?
In 1965, Warhol revisited the Campbell's Soup cans theme while arbitrarily replacing the original red and white colors with a wider variety of hues. He produced a set of 20, 3 by 2 feet (91 cm × 61 cm) canvases, using either four or five colors in addition to black and, in some instances, white. This set is regarded as significant enough to tour as its own art exhibition. Ken Johnson, of The New York Times, noted that, in contrast to Warhol's usual "mechanical repetition", each painting was remarkable for its uniqueness. 19 of the 20 were still in existence when 12 of them were presented in an exhibition in 2011. At some point prior to 2004, the Museum of Modern Art had one of these.
