The Rhodes Association for Architectural and Cultural Heritage, in collaboration with collector Francesco Masiero, presents a unique exhibition dedicated to Andy Warhol, one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century.
With a title inspired by Warhol’s famous phrase “Everyone will be world-famous for fifteen minutes,” the exhibition explores the artist’s creative pursuits and social concerns. From the emblematic Campbell’s soup cans and celebrity portraits of Marilyn Monroe, Ingrid Bergman, Mao Zedong, and Pelé, to works referencing violence, consumerism, money, and pop culture, Warhol emerges as an artist who foresaw the forces that would shape the modern world.
A special highlight of the exhibition is the presentation of a portrait of Alexander the Great, honouring Greece, along with works by Warhol’s friends and collaborators Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring.
