LAST CHANCE Andy Warhol, The Glam Factory

3 November 2024
AED 80

A collection of more than 100 of Warhol’s works, curated by Nada Ghandour, which aims to trace Warhol’s rise from his modest beginnings in commercial illustration to his status as the Pope of Pop Art via screenprints, photos, and magazines from the 1960s to the 1980s. (The good news: seems there are none of his films.)

The exhibition is organized into two sections, one for the man himself and the other to The Factory. Andy Warhol: From Shadows to Light covers the significant milestones of his career and his aesthetic evolution, from his advertising drawings to the Campbell’s Soup Cans. The Glam Factory: Art Meets Business / The Business Man Artist focuses on his signature painted portraits (Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Mao Zedong) and includes commissions and collaborations (Edward Kennedy, Paloma Picasso, Keith Haring). Additionally, it features stars who shared Warhol’s extravagant social life and sometimes collaborated artistically with him (Calvin Klein, Giorgio Armani, Mick Jagger).

The AED 80 ticket is for weekdays; weekends the price goes up to AED 100.
