The dominant figure on the Pop Art scene, Andy Warhol made his mark on the cultural scene in the Sixties and changed the very nature of art once and for all.
A volcano of ideas and activities, provocative and ingenious, he himself was a ‘work of art’, a sort of magnet attracting intellectuals, artists, writers, and characters from the underground scene.
This exhibition comes to Italy for the first time, evoking Warhol’s world in images through the complete works of David McCabe and Billy Name, two photographers who had the opportunity to follow the artist extensively.
