Andy Warhol : 4 of 5
9.28.2003 8:59 PM \| Link	I used to visit the Austin Museum of Art often when I was a member, but I hadn't been in quite a while, so I was glad that my pal Eliza invited me to see the latest exhibit of Andy Warhol's work. I've seen quite a bit of Warhol in other museums (nearly every modern art exhibit I've seen has at least one), but it was a treat to see over 80 works at the same time. It's a large exhibit, including lots of the famous soup cans, but moving forward to other series from his later years, and even including some film and other multimedia. I don't really know how his screen printing process worked, but it's amazing to look at the prints up close and see the precision of each layer of color. I especially like the works where multiple layers overlap, but don't exactly line up (it reminds me of the backgrounds in 101 Dalmatians). What a nice way to spend an afternoon! Labels: arts
