Andy Warhol: The Last Decade
October 17, 2010–January 9, 2011
This is the first U.S. museum exhibition to explore the late works of American artist Andy Warhol (1928-1987). This vibrant and surprising show brings together more than 40 works that reveal the artist’s energetic return to painting and renewed spirit of experimentation during the final years of his life. During this time, Warhol created more paintings and on a vastly larger scale than at any other moment of his 40-year career. Highlights include self-portraits with “fright wigs,” Rorschach and camouflage pattern abstractions, and variations on Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, as well as collaborative works with young artist Jean-Michel Basquiat that mix graffiti and street imagery with Warhol’s Pop vocabulary.
