Andy Warhol brought people together in ways that fueled their enthusiasm for art. His prowess at networking and finding commonalities inspired us to partner with Colorado organizations, artists, and collectors to create a show enriched by the enduring connections Warhol made when visiting Colorado in the late 70s and early 80s.
Warhol’s use of photography was the central tool that enabled both his art and social relations. Warhol in Colorado features the collection of Warhol Polaroids and silver prints gifted to the University of Denver by the Andy Warhol Foundation in 2008. Images by Colorado photographers (John Bonath, Valere Harris Shane, and Mark Sink) who photographed the artist in New York and Colorado in the 1980s, turn the camera on Warhol himself. Complimenting the photography are iconic hand-finished works by Warhol drawn from Colorado collections, such as complete sets of the 1972 Mao series and 1982 Myths series.
Warhol’s prolific output of works relating to music is represented in screen prints of Mick Jagger, record album covers, and magazines. Posters, works on video, and assorted ephemera add further context to Warhol’s Colorado connections.
Opening Event: “Warhol Happening” at the Cable Center, University of Denver campus. Thursday January 20, 6 – 11 pm. Visit Colorado Blacktie to book your tickets (event code “Warhol.”)
