Andy Warhol exhibition featuring more than 100 artworks opens at Tate Liverpool

An Andy Warhol exhibition featuring more than 100 artworks has opened in Liverpool, the UK.

Called Transmitting Andy Warhol, the Tate Liverpool exhibition focuses on how the American artist publicized his iconic paintings around the world.

It is the first major solo display of Andy Warhol’s work ever to be shown in the north of England.

Andy Warhol was a leading proponent of the “pop art” genre, a post-war style based on vivid imagery from popular culture.

The artist, who died in 1987, was famous for producing works featuring Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley, as well as pieces highlighting everyday items like soup cans.

Andy Warhol’s works are among the most sought-after in the world and, in 2011, a self-portrait sold for $38.4 million at Christie’s in New York.

Tate Liverpool said the new exhibition explores how Andy Warhol “transmitted” his work into the public realm via his interaction with popular culture.

The exhibition is also intended to “challenge the traditional separation between high and low culture”.

Stephanie Straine, the exhibition’s assistant curator, said: “Andy Warhol believed that art was for everyone, and tried to get his work out there to the biggest audience possible.

“This led him to have his own show on Manhattan cable TV, and even to create designs for musicians and albums, such as Velvet Underground and John Lennon’s Menlove Avenue.

“I’m thrilled that we have this exhibition here in Liverpool and I’m sure our visitors will enjoy it.”

Transmitting Andy Warhol runs until February 8 2015.
