Andy Warhol in the Factory, New York 1968©
Andy Warhol (1928–1987) is considered one of the twentieth century’s most important artists and a co-founder of Pop Art. Throughout his career, he devoted himself to in-depth investigation of the mass media and the star cult. Now for the first time, with the exhibition “Warhol: Headlines” (February 11th – May 13th 2012), the MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt am Main will pay tribute to the large group of works in which he used or made reference to headlines. This comprehensive show was made possible by international cooperation between the National Gallery of Art in Washington, The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna in Rome and the Frankfurt MMK.

PPL Landscape
Storefront for Art and Architecture presents Ingredients of Reality : the Dismantling of New York City by Lan Tuazon presents sculptures, drawings and prints that discuss how history, the law and class structures are written on the physical environment. Surrealist in concept, Tuazon takes real/existing parts of the built environment — including buildings, lots, and monuments – and creates a new reality against the repressive logic of property. The exhibition includes the presentation of two new works: Architectures of Defense and New York City Bar Graph, which paired with Tuazon’s Army Park and Parking Lot Landscape, present the city disassembled into parts and functions unveiling taxonomies of power reordered into new composite figures that render visible what reality has ceased to distinguish.
