"Andy Warhol Drawings: 1942-1987"
2000-02-27 until 2000-04-30
Andy Warhol Museum
Pittsburgh, PA, USA United States of America

One of the least studied aspects of Warhol's work to date are his drawings and works on paper. The only museum exhibition seriously devoted to the subject was over twenty years ago in Stuttgart, and his later drawings, from his last decade, have hardly been seen at all, except at The Andy Warhol Museum.

It is still widely believed that Warhol largely stopped drawing after his career as a commercial artist in New York during the 1950s. In fact, he drew prolifically during the 1970s and 1980s, often working in his studio on weekends when the volatile activities of his high-profile life were relatively quiet. Most of these later drawings were retained in his studio and were not exhibited at the time..
