Warhol Exhibit at, "The Dali" Museum
















January 18 - April 27, 2014
See what happens when two of the most influential artists of the 20th century meet.

About the Exhibit

"Warhol: Art. Fame. Mortality." explores how Andy Warhol learned from Dalí's public visibility and was equally attuned to the images derived from mass culture. The exhibit considers Warhol's seldom discussed engagement with other artists through his own painting, how he constructed an approach to the image in terms of celebrity and fame, and finally his treatment of painting and image as it pertains to human mortality.

Dalí and Warhol

"Warhol and Dalí lived in New York City at the same time. The photos of the two of them suggest a certain reticence. Perhaps they knew the how much alike they were. Artistically they are of the same species - both radical. If Dalí is radical in the way he delivered his subject of the changeable self through many media - painting, sculpture, film, and language - Warhol is radical in allowing media to provide his subject - faces from the tabloids and glossy magazines, products from the catalog of the American consumer. If Dalí used popular media to present his vision of the dream world, Warhol used popular media as the subject of his art. Warhol was one of the American artists most marked by the legacy and model of Salvador Dalí." - Dr. Hank Hine, Executive Director of The Dali
