Looking At Warhol

The Andy Warhol Enterprises exhibition has finally arrived at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. I have had the opportunity to view the show on my own but have not had an opportunity to go through it with a curator. I must admit, I was more impressed that I thought I would be. I was surprised to learn that Warhol’s work included fashion, design, music, television and film

The focus of this show is the Andy Warhol Enterprises, Inc., which was formed in 1957 in connection with his career as a commercial artists. I grew up with viewing many of the Warhol images. A lot of his work was somewhat familiar. This particular exhibition is large and includes several pieces of work that were new to me. I would have to say the silk screens portraits have to be my favorite. Warhol created hundreds of portraits in the 1970s and 80s. I especially like Andy’s self-portraits.

There are currently many of exhibits of Andy Warhol’s work in the country. I am proud to say that the exhibition at the IMA is spectacular. The exhibit is large and takes some time to really take it all in. The exhibit will be around at the museum until the first of the year. I am looking forward to viewing again the work of one of the most widely known artist in America. The next time may be with a tour guide.
