Image Machine: Andy Warhol and Photography

Expositions du 17/9/2013 au 15/12/2013 Terminé

Rose gallery Bergamot Station Arts Center 2525 Michigan Ave 90404 California États-Unis

Iconic American artist Andy Warhol (1928 – 1987) created much of his art from photographs—those he collected from mass media and those he shot himself. Image Machine, which is drawn largely from the Rose Art Museum’s permanent collection, focuses on how Warhol used photography throughout his career as source material, medium, and subject matter. The phrase “image machine” refers to both the artist himself—he produced tens of thousands of photographs over his lifetime—and the technologies he employed. Warhol adopted the image-making machines of popular culture, including still cameras, movie cameras, and commercial silkscreen printing.
