It was the first comprehensive survey of Andy Warhol’s oeuvre from its collections, and a homage to one of the most influential artists of the second half of the last century. The exhibition reflects Peter Brant’s lasting passion for Andy Warhol’s work, a rare long-time commitment, which began more than four decades ago. It was Brant who very early in the artist’s career recognized the significance of Warhol’s work, in order to form a truly outstanding coherent collection, never-before-seen in any public institution.
