With more than 350 works of art, many assembled together for the first time, this landmark exhibition, organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art, will unite all aspects, media, and periods of Warhol’s forty-year career. |
Through his carefully cultivated persona and willingness to experiment with non-traditional art-making techniques, Andy Warhol understood the growing power of images in contemporary life and helped to expand the role of the artist in society, marking him one of the most distinct and internationally recognized American artists of the twentieth century. This exhibition sets out to prove that there remains far more to Warhol and his work than is commonly known.
Building on a wealth of new materials, research and scholarship that has emerged since the artist’s untimely death 1987, as well as De Salvo’s own expertise and original research conducted by the Whitney’s curatorial team, the checklist of works has been carefully selected from amongst the thousands of paintings, drawings, print, sculptures, films, videos and photographs that Warhol produced during his lifetime.
