Andy Warhol Photography: Gifts of the Andy Warhol Foundation
January 18 - April 12, 2009
Andy Warhol used the camera as a journal and a sketchbook during his life, constantly capturing source material for his artwork. When he passed away he left over 60,000 photographs. These images give us insight into his life and his process.
The Dennos Museum Center is proud to be a recipient of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts' Photographic Legacy Program and to receive 150 Andy Warhol photographs. The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts was established in 1987. In accordance with Andy Warhol's will, its mission is the advancement of the visual arts. The Foundation's objective is to foster innovative artistic expression and the creative process by encouraging and supporting cultural organizations that in turn, directly or indirectly, support artists and their work. The Foundation values the contribution these organizations make to artists and audiences and to society as a whole by supporting, exhibiting and interpreting a broad spectrum of contemporary artistic practice.
