2005 Exhibition Year

PNC Presents
Warhol Legacy: Selections from The Andy Warhol Museum

9/24/2005 to 2/20/2006

This exhibition, a collaboration between the Corcoran Gallery of Art and The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, offers Washington audiences a rare opportunity to view some of the artist’s most treasured works of art. The exhibition features more than 150 paintings, photographs, drawings, sculptures, works on paper, and films from the renowned permanent collection of The Andy Warhol Museum.

One of the most influential and iconic artists of the 20th century, Andy Warhol challenged many basic cultural assumptions, including traditional distinctions between popular culture and fine art, prints and paintings, and art and social reportage. Warhol Legacy is organized thematically to reflect the range of the artist’s production over the span of his career, while mining the strengths of The Warhol Museum’s diverse collection.
