IRVING BLUM IN CONVERSATION

“Warhol didn’t make a mark on American culture. He became the instrument with which American culture designated itself.” — Peter Schjeldahl

In conjunction with the Whitney show ANDY WARHOL—FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN, Irving Blum—whose Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles was the first to exhibit Warhol’s post-advertising artwork, the Campbell’s soup-can paintings—will talk about working with the artist.

Blum will be joined by Bob ColacelloInterview editor throughout the 1970s—and Vincent Fremont, the former executive manager of Warhol’s studio and a co-founder of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.

Exhibition curator Donna De Salvo will moderate the conversation.
