I went to see Andy Warhol's retrospective at the Mac in Belfast last week :)
The exhibition mainly displayed his movie posters and eighties work (which is a tad disappointing tbh) but they did however have a Jackie Kennedy and a Mick Jagger so I was literally in awe. I spent most of the time in two little rooms that were connected to the main hall. One room had Andy's cow wallpaper and his self portrait polaroids. The second room had Warhol's silver balloons and a little tv that displayed some footage from the factory. Downstairs they had a small room with a projector which showed a documentary from the nineties called Superstar. In the evenings they were showing Eat, Sleep, Empire and Beauty no. 2 but sadly I couldn't stay :( As you can see from my picture I literally bought the entire gift shop...oops My favourite is the butterflies print, its going to look so cool in my room. The Marilyn is box canvas so I need to try and figure out how I'm going to hang it. I took some pictures of the museum guide to show you guys...
I wore this skirt to the exhibition. I think the mini sunflower print looks very pop :P (I'm such a geek)
You weren't really allowed to take pictures inside the museum but I sneaked a few (rebel) I came across this drawing of little James Dean when I was flicking through some of the books. I never seen it before and I really love it
