Andy’s Cactus® Returns: Gufram x Andy Warhol’s Limited-Edition Bloom in Green, White & Orange

TL;DR: Gufram and The Andy Warhol Foundation just unveiled three new limited-edition versions of Andy’s Cactus®—now in green, white, and orange—each capped at 99 pieces. The life-size polyurethane sculpture (finished in Guflac®) nods to Warhol’s iconic “fright wig” colorways while reviving the 1972 CACTUS® by Drocco & Mello. Release date: September 27, 2025.






A pop-art icon, replanted

Gufram and The Andy Warhol Foundation are back with a fresh drop of Andy’s Cactus®—this time in green, white, and orange. Each colorway is limited to just 99 pieces, making this one of the most collectible design-art releases of the year. Published on September 27, 2025, the collaboration extends their 2022 chapter (which debuted in blue, pink, and yellow) with a punchier, Warhol-forward palette. Hypebeast

From radical design to domestic sculpture

Originally designed in 1972 by Guido Drocco and Franco Mello, the CACTUS® blurred the line between functional object and sculpture. Standing roughly human-height with four anthropomorphic arms and more than 2,000 nodules, it carries the playful irreverence of Italian Radical Design into the home. The new editions use soft polyurethane coated in Guflac®, Gufram’s patented finish that delivers a matte, “hard-look/soft-touch” surface. Hypebeast

Warhol’s “fright wig,” reimagined

The latest trio is inspired by Andy Warhol’s 1986 “fright wig” self-portrait series, translating that electric, high-contrast attitude into saturated, sculptural color. It’s classic Warhol: seriality and repetition made strange and new—exactly the paradox Gufram leans into by releasing the same object in never-before-seen hues. Hypebeast
