Andy Warhol Collection of Nine “Love You Live” Photographs, 1977

Warhol met Mick Jagger in 1963 when the band was not well known in the United States. Warhol designed the band’s provocative 1971 album cover Sticky Fingers with its focus on a man’s crotch and a zipper that opened, and their 1977 album Love You Live.  This cover features images from a number of photographs that Warhol took of the band members licking or biting each other or just sticking their tongues out.  These images were also used on tablecloths, bags, and other items for the1977 album launch party at New York’s club Trax.  The exhibition features some of these items as well as these iconic photographs.
