Early Warhol in Context
Now thru
Sunday, June 8, 2008   

A group of early paintings and drawings by Andy Warhol on loan from the Ileana and Michael Sonnabend Collection will be presented with works by other artists from the late 1950s and early 1960s to trace Warhol's stylistic influences and evolution.

 

Rarely seen works from the museum's permanent collection by Fernandez Arman, Lee Bontecou, Yayoi Kusama and Cy Twombly demonstrate how other young artists in New York in the 1950s and 1960s were experimenting with new means of expression to move painting beyond the mannerisms of Abstract Expressionism.
