Warhol The Bazaar Years {Part 2}

Wednesday, December 9, 2009
Here are a few more highlights from the Andy Warhol exhibit currently on display in the Hearst Tower (shown below). For this post I grouped scans of the catalogue together in a collage like way to highlight his whimsical illustrations of accessories and products.

"Warhol found almost immediate success after arriving in New York...Armed with a portfolio of his student drawings and a degree in pictorial design from the Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University)." (Charlie Scheips, exhibit catalogue) Shortly after arriving in New York, Warhol began illustrating for Haper's Bazaar. He collaborated with Bazaar editors for thirteen years.
