Andy Warhol Self-Portraits

venue: Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art

This is the first time an exhibition has been devoted entirely to Warhol's celebrity and his self-portraits. Don't miss the only UK showing.

Warhol (1928-87) was one of the first artists to appropriate imagery from advertising and other expressions of consumer culture. His cool, iconic portraits of post-war celebrities from politics and show business, such as Mao-Tse Tung and Marilyn Monroe have attained iconic status.

A decade and a half after his death, his impact on film, fashion, photography, advertising and, not least, painting, shows no sign of diminishing.
