Viewpoint (FS. II 329) by Andy Warhol presents the image of a city building, layered with blocks of color that give the print a dynamic, collage-like effect. The fragmented layering disrupts the visual continuity, suggesting multiple interpretations—perhaps a commentary on the fractured nature of urban space. Unlike much of Warhol’s earlier work, *Viewpoint* is notable for its strong vertical segmentation, dividing the composition into four distinct columns and encouraging the viewer to experience the image as a series of separate moments rather than a singular whole.
Created in 1985, just two years before Warhol’s death, Viewpoint (FS. II 329) reflects the evolving style of his late career, a period increasingly marked by bold color blocking and vibrant patterning.
Throughout his career, Warhol often incorporated bold fields of color into his prints, usually applying them uniformly or at diagonal angles. However, in *Viewpoint 329*, the use of vertical columns of color introduces a unique visual rhythm. A comparable experiment can be seen in Warhol’s Jean Cocteau 329A, produced around the same time, where he instead uses horizontal bands of color to disrupt the image. These works stand out in Warhol’s oeuvre as rare examples of this approach to color division, highlighting a late-career interest in deconstructing and reassembling imagery through vivid, segmented color fields.
