For more than fourteen years Kara Walkerhas engaged directly with all the conflicts associated with racial difference, at the same time with extraordinary elegance involving the history of art such that the content of the works is further reinforced by the form. We encounter an oeuvre that fans out into a myriad of media and idioms, that makes demands on us and required us to take a stand. Her work offers no happy endings, although it often includes references to the big production of Hollywood. Instead it is an oeuvre that is insistently and urgently uncompromising with its humour and tireless ability to twist the knife where it really hurts.

In the 1960s, Andy Warhol was at the height of his success. It was during the period from 1962 to 1968 that he produced the pictures which, in a flash, revolutionized contemporary art and paved the way for pop art as the form of pictorial art most typical of the period and which, moreover, has subsequently retained its status as an icon of the consumer society and of the idolization quintessential to the worlds of media and advertizing. This book presents his most famous prints.

The American Pop artist Andy Warhol (1928-87), was introduced to Andersen’s paper cuttings in 1986, which gave him the idea to create a series using Andersen himself and his paper cutting as his motifs. The result was two series - one graphic and one colouristic - which after a long, time-consuming process were finished in November 1986, each printed in 25 copies, one of the smallest editions made by Warhol. The two series and 56 trial proofs are brought together in this book.

In the exhibition Andy Warhol – the Man behind the Myth, we leave the traditional image of Warhol behind, delving deeper into the man himself. Through themes of death, sexuality, and religion, we try to catch a glimpse of the fabled father of pop art. The exhibition features a number of works and effects not previously shown in Denmark. With the work series Disasters and Suicides, it focuses on Warhol’s ambition about giving death an artistic expression, while his many dietary books and obsessive preoccupation with health was a testimony to his very fear of it. The exhibition also focuses on the conflicting aspects of Warhol’s religious life and his homosexuality. The work The Last Supper and the artist’s personal, tattered prayer book attest to his strong faith, while the self-portraits with Warhol wearing a wig and women’s clothing point in a different direction. Andy Warhol – the Man behind the Myth features the classic Warhol works, but also attempts to open visitors’ eyes to the narrowly defined currents contained in Warhol’s art. The extensive collection of personal effects contained everything from books about health and diets to homosexual pornography, giving us a unique glimpse of the artist as a private person.
