Facing Artists

February 27 - July 31, 2009

For a decade beginning in 1968 Theo Wujcik created a series of portraits of contemporary artists. Made from a photograph provided by the dealer Brooke Alexander,
this portrait of Andy Warhol was rendered the same year as Warhol’s portrait of Mick Jagger on view in this gallery. Wujcik translated the image into silverpoint,
a medium associated with Renaissance portraits, and added the Campbell’s soup logo to Warhol’s shirt in reference to the Pop artist’s signature image.
