Andy Warhol Live

Before I went to Nashville this weekend, I checked if there were any art exhibits, and there was http://fristcenter.org/calendar-exhibitions/detail/warhol-live  I have seen his works in New York many years ago, but this time I had some knowledge of printmaking (!), so I really enjoyed looking at his work at the Frisk Center for the Visual Arts.  I didn't know he had a great interest in classical music and was a subscriber to the Metropolitan Opera.  His work of "toe shoes" are so lively and lovely.  You will get to see all those Hollywood stars in prints, illustrations for almost fifty record covers, works from the Silver Factory such as Heinz Boxes and soup cans, and portraits of Mick Jagger and other famous people.  I have learned to appreciate modern art more.  His works will be at Frist Center till September 11, so if you have a chance to go to Nashville, visit there!
