New York, NY (February 20, 2025) – For immediate release:
This March, Taglialatella Galleries presents Andy Warhol: Factory Made; an exhibition of artwork representing three decades of iconic artwork from America’s most bought and sold artist in history, Andy Warhol.
Perhaps no formal introduction is needed for Andy Warhol, known by most for his pop art style and his ability to transform numerous everyday objects and recognizable faces into his muses. His subjects ranged from household products like Brillo boxes and Campbell’s Soup cans to musicians, athletes, politicians, and other influential pop culture and historical figures. In a studio he called “The Factory”, Warhol mastered the ability to walk this fine line between artistic creation and manufactured aesthetics with a commercial and business-like attitude toward the works he produced.
Between 1963 and his untimely death in 1987, Warhol moved his physical studio space several times, but The Factory continued to pump out a body of work unparalleled both then and since. It is estimated that Warhol created over 10,000 paintings, and his catalog raisonné of prints cites 413 published works in varying sized limited editions, totaling six figures of artwork produced in that 25-year span. In retrospect, this unprecedented style of creation is even more impressive since Warhol’s work was made before digital printing and computer-generation existed. As Warhol curated exhibitions and collaborated with fashion designers throughout the 80’s, he also produced countless hours of artistic films and shot hundreds of thousands of photographs.
With Andy Warhol: Factory Made, Taglialatella will feature the most iconic and sought-after of Warhol’s editions from The Factory’s three decades. Guests will have the opportunity to view and purchase some of his most commercially traded and valuable works from this legendary period. For those more interested in the man himself, visitors can also view relics of Warhol’s eccentric style, including his iconic silver wig and a pair of his sunglasses.
The exhibition will begin the evening of Thursday, March 6th at 229 10th Avenue, New York, NY, with an opening reception from 6-8 PM. Factory Made will then travel to Toronto and continue at Taglialatella Galleries’ 99 Yorkville Ave. location, opening April 10th, 2025.
