ISBN: 9781857599848
Description: New York: Scala, 2015. 24cm., pbk., 64pp. illus. Exhibition held at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville. Summary: Drawn primarily from the extensive collections of The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, this exhibition will explore the artist’s surprising lifelong engagement with nature as subject matter. Although well known for his responsiveness to popular culture and advertising, Warhol simultaneously explored the natural world through his work, depicting landscapes, flora, and fauna in innovative and surprising ways. Organized by theme, the exhibition includes works from every decade of the Pop icon’s long career, from his earliest drawings as a commercial illustrator through his later paintings of flowers and wildlife. Visitors will have the opportunity to experience well-known artworks like Warhol’s Self-Portrait in his infamous fright wig overlaid with camouflage, the iconic Flowers series of the 1960s, and an interactive installation of his inflatable Clouds. Photographs, documents, and personal objects once owned by Warhol will offer further insight into this understudied yet vitally important strain of the artist’s career.
