A NEW EXHIBITION CELEBRATING THE WORK OF POP ART ICON ANDY WARHOL ARRIVES AT THE ASHMOLEAN MUSEUM
February 11, 2016
Andy Warhol's work has adorned museum walls for over half a century. As early as December 1962 his Gold Marilyn Monroe was accepted into the permanent collection of New York's Museum of Modern Art. In 1963, his work was included in the Guggenheim Museum's show Six Painters and their Objects. Now this stuff is in a museum, a Vogue columnist quipped at the time, I suppose we'll have to start taking it seriously.
