Opening event for AMP @ The Warhol
$5 | 6-10pm @ The Andy Warhol Museum 117 Sandusky St [Northside].
412-237-8300 www.warhol.org |
Map/directions
In February, The Andy Warhol
Museum will exhibit a group show of small works juried by the curatorial staff
of the Museum. For the first time, local artists are being invited to submit
12"x12" square pieces which will hang in a 4th floor gallery at the Museum on
the North Shore. Submissions for AMP @ The Warhol will be accepted at The Warhol
on January 31 and February 1 from 10:00am to 4:00pm. In addition to the
opportunity for local visual artist to have their work on display at the
world-renown Museum, AMP will create opportunities for the artists to connect to
Pittsburgh patrons. Thomas Sokolowski, Director for The Andy Warhol Museum,
says, "Local artists need to be fed by local collectors. I hope that this
exhibition will 'kick-ass' with collectors by offering them a wide array of
small-sized works by regional artists." To connect Pittsburgh to a broader
community of emerging artists, AMP @ The Warhol will also feature the
internationally-recognized Flat Files by the Pierogi 2000 Gallery in Brooklyn,
New York. The Flat Files are wide, shallow stacks of drawers housing more than
3,000 works by over 700 under-recognized and young, emerging artists from around
the world. "The Flat Files will bring an international array of other artists to
the table. It will be a banquet of art here on Sandusky Street," says Sokolowski. Tonight
is the opening event, with exhibits of local artists, a lecture by the director
of NYC's Julie Saul Gallery, with music provided by element 5 .
