Kate Moss, Pop Art Muse

In terms of pop art, Kate Moss is definitely a successor to Marilyn Monroe as a most used (or perhaps overused) icon. Banksy's prints of Moss as the modern Marilyn sold for £96,000 at the Bonham's Urban Art auction in February (a set of the six prints sold for around $94,000 back in 2006). Now the Helium Foundation, is releasing a complete portfolio of all six Kate prints for sale. The Helium Foundation hasn't released pricing information on the prints but there is a limited edition of 20 sets. Is Kate a sound investment? It would certainly seem so currently, pictures of Kate Moss by a variety of artists have commanded high prices in several auctions. Check out the gallery below for a few sample of Kate as an art muse.
