The exhibition, Andy Warhol:Social Circus, is the brainchild of lawyer and art collector Ryan Su, and this is his first show to launch the The Ryan Foundation, which aims to promote arts education and nature conservation seeks. Andy Warhol:Social Circus will feature up to 30 polaroids, and they include the likes of Andy Warhol himself, Bianca Jagger,, Andre Leon Talley, Candy Spelling, Diana Vreeland, Tina Chow and Martha Graham.
This is also the first time these polaroids have been reunited and exhibited under one roof in Asia, since they were pulled out of Warhol’s Polaroid camera between 1958-1987 and dispersed across the world by various collectors.
These polaroids not only demonstrate Warhol’s influence as an artist and society figure, but also inspire his large-scale portraits he is best known for.
Andy Warhol:Social Circus will kick start Singapore Art Week 2016 and will be on display from 16 to 29 January 2016 at Block 47 Malan Road, #01-26, Gillman Barracks. It will open daily from 11am to 7pm
