ANDY WARHOL AND THE MEDIA
Rome’s National Gallery of Modern Art is exhibiting a large number of works by the great American artist, the icon of Pop Art. His paintings-serigraphs (from Marilyn Monroe and Campbell’s soup cans to Elvis and dollar bill logos) became symbols of American art and culture. The works being presented in this large retrospective exhibition “Andy Warhol Headlines – Andy Warhol and the Media” are centred upon his linguistic symbols. Warhol is being represented at the National Gallery of Modern Art by one of his “political still lifes”: Hammer and Sickle (1972), one of the works from his Hammer and Sickle series inspired by Italy. The GNAM exhibit is being presented in collaboration with the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., the Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt and The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The show is curated by Molly Donovan with the collaboration of John J. Curley, Anthony E. Grudin, John G. Hanhardt, Calie Angell and Matt Wrbican.
