Andy Warhol--From A To B And Back Again At Whitney Museum Editorial Photo

Camouflage Last Supper of 1986 by Andy Warhol, is an experiment of overlaying a camouflage pattern with the historical antecedent, Leonardo da Vinci`s The Last Supper. It was on display at the Whitney Museum of American Art at the largest retrospective of the work of Andy Warhol in nearly 30 years, entitled: Andy Warhol---From A to B and Back Again.  The show opened on November 12, 2018 and closed on March 31, 2019.  This photo was taken on March 29, 2019 in New York City.  Warhol was born and raised in Pittsburgh, later moving to New York, where his career as an artist exploded and produced many of his works at his Manhattan studio called the Factory.  Warhol explored the visualist movement of Pop Art.  His work ranged from Modern Art to Naiive Art, Abstract Expressionism.  His impact was keenly aware of the burgeoning celebrity culture and art used for advertising.  He devised the silkscreen printing technique, which took photographic imagery and printed it directly on canvasses, often employing duplicate images on one or more large panels.  He was also a director, producer, and filmmaker. The giant rectangular image made with silkscreen ink on a canvas measuring 6 feet 8 inches by 25 feet 5 inches.
