Andy Warhol, absolute pop art

Are we interested in an object presented on November 11th on our auction site encherissez.com?

"You're in" is a multiple object with a silver sprayed Coca-Cola bottle and the rare grey lacquered metal Coca-Cola bottle holder with bow handle, 1967. The bottle monogr. "A.". W.". 
Warhol created "You're In" in 1967 and filled Coca-Cola bottles with a cheap cologne called "Silver Lining". He promoted the project on a poster for an exhibition at the Merchandise Museum with the mischievous title "You're In". However, by subversively pointing out that these Coca-Cola bottles were ostensibly filled with urine, Warhol seemed to defame a product that almost all Americans consumed. Coca-Cola, however, was not amused and demanded that Warhol's art production and sales be stopped. This work embodies Warhol's profound and unprecedented ability to both iconically preserve and simultaneously destroy the commercial identity of the everyday object.
