ASU Art Museum: The Photography of Andy Warhol
Posted: Mar 29 2011 9:01 am
Since this site has a fairly significant bent on photography (and some damn good photographers), I thought perhaps some of those HAZers might be interested in the current exhibit at the ASU Art Museum.

On a technological note, I suppose there's a difference between taking a photo and having it printed, but I'm pretty sure I have over 28,500 photos in my digital library from just the past 3 years!
(And there's probably not a single one that somebody could mistake for a Warhol photo! :roll:)

Just like HAZ, the ASU Art Museum is free (donations accepted). Unlike HAZ, you can only visit Tuesdays 11-8, and Wed-Sat 11-5.Today, some people document their every mood via Twitter.
Andy Warhol used a camera, and judging by his archive, he must have spent a fortune on film. Warhol began carrying a camera every day, in approximately 1974, snapping two rolls of film a day.
Warhol photographed friends, scenes and interesting objects from his everyday life, accumulating more than 28,500 photos before his death in 1987.
Forty of those black-and-white photographs are now on display in the Multi-Purpose Room of the ASU Art Museum in a show titled “Who, What, Where: Photographs From the Andy Warhol Photographic Legacy Program.” The exhibit runs through Aug. 6.
