Private Tour of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again at the Whitney Museum of American Art

January 24, 2019, 4:15 pm

Members at the Contributor level and above are invited to join Parrish leadership on a private tour of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again at the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Few American artists are as ever-present and instantly recognizable as Andy Warhol (1928–1987). Through his carefully cultivated persona and willingness to experiment with non-traditional art-making techniques, Warhol understood the growing power of images in contemporary life and helped to expand the role of the artist in society. This exhibition—the first Warhol retrospective organized by a U.S. institution since 1989—reconsiders the work of one of the most inventive, influential, and important American artists. Building on a wealth of new materials, research and scholarship that has emerged since the artist’s untimely death in 1987, this exhibition reveals new complexities about the Warhol we think we know, and introduces a Warhol for the 21st century.

This free event is for Parrish Members at the Contributor level and above.  Not a Member?  Join today!

Limited availability; reservations required.
