Pauline Boty’s Colour Her Gone (1962) is featured in the upcoming exhibition Marilyn Monroe: A Portrait, curated by Rosie Broadley at the National Portrait Gallery. Bringing together works by artists from Andy Warhol to Marlene Dumas, the exhibition traces the construction and circulation of Monroe’s image across a transatlantic visual culture. Within this context, Boty’s work offers a distinct, critical perspective, foregrounding her position within British Pop.
