San Francisco Silverspot Butterfly is part of Warhol’s environmentally conscious series, Endangered Species. The series was commissioned and published by New York-based gallerist and political activist Ronald Feldman. It depicts ten species: African elephant, Pine Barrens tree frog, giant panda, bald eagle, Amur tiger, Callippe silverspot butterfly, orangutan, Grevy’s zebra, black rhinoceros, and bighorn ram. As of 2025, six of these species remain at risk of extinction. The series coincided with the tenth anniversary of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), helping to raise awareness.
"San Francisco Silverspot Butterfly" kuulub Warholi keskkonnateadlikku seeriasse "Endangered Species". Seeria tellis ja andis välja New Yorgi galerist ja poliitiline aktivist Ronald Feldman. Sari kujutab kümmet liiki: aafrika elevant, männi-puukonn, hiidpanda, valgepea-merikotkas, amuuri tiiger, callippe hõbetäpik, orangutan, sebra, teravmokk-ninasarvik ja suur sarviklammas. 2025. aasta seisuga on kuus neist liikidest endiselt väljasuremisohus. Seeria langes kokku ESA (Endangered Species Act) kümnenda aastapäevaga võimendades teadlikkuse kasvu.
It is possible to book museum rooms, the whole museum or a separate event space PoCo Lab.
