James Francis Gill is a pioneer of the Pop Art movement known for his famous 1962 "Marilyn Triptych," which was acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in the US shortly after Marilyn Monroe’s death. His art explores her psyche by blending different stages of her public and private life. The American speaks to CGTN Europe about his art, the photographs and Monroe’s star appeal. In celebration of the Hollywood star’s 100th birthday and in association with the Marilyn Monroe estate, ‘Marilyn Monroe: A Portrait’ at London’s National Portrait gallery explores her life, career and legacy. #artist #JamesFrancisGill #monroe #marilyn
