Presented with cultural partner Taglialatella Galleries and in association with ARTS FOR A BETTER WORLD, the exhibition celebrates Andy Warhol’s career and includes work in a variety of media from the artist’s early years to his final paintings.
Developed around six distinct themes; Flowers, Animals, Politics, Icons, Early Years and Late Years, the exhibition includes iconic works and a great many works never before exhibited to the public.
Exhibition highlights are many, and traverse a great spectrum of time and sensibility. Highlights include the rarely exhibited Flash November 22, 1963 portfolio in its entirety. Warhol created the portfolio in 1968 in response to the national trauma of the Kennedy assassination and to the then unprecedented international media coverage of the event. Additional features include a rare, large scale portrait of 1980’s icon Debby Harry, and a very intimate portrait of Warhol’s beloved Dachshund, Archie.
