Few artists embodied the fearless glamour of the 1980s quite like Grace Jones. Model, singer, actress, and style icon, Jones blurred the lines between fashion, music, and performance art—creating a look and persona that was unlike anything the decade had seen.
Her appearance on the cover of Andy Warhol’s Interview Magazine in October 1984 perfectly captured that electrifying moment in pop culture. With her sculptural features, commanding gaze, and unmistakable high-fashion edge, Grace Jones became the ideal subject for Warhol’s legendary publication, which chronicled the intersection of celebrity, art, nightlife, and style.
Founded by Andy Warhol in 1969, Interview was the ultimate insider’s magazine of the downtown art world—where musicians, actors, and cultural icons were photographed and interviewed with the same cool, avant-garde sensibility that defined Warhol’s Factory.
