On May 17, the exhibition Warhol & Vijande: Cita en Madrid will open its doors. Más que Imágenes Alteradas by Christopher Makos at the Museo Lázaro Galdiano in Madrid, an exhibition that recalls the exhibition that gallerist Fernando Vijande dedicated to the king of Pop Art in 1983. In the autumn, the exhibition will be presented at the headquarters of the Suñol Foundation in Barcelona.
The exhibition investigates the relationship of gallerist Fernando Vijande with the American painter Andy Warhol and his work, the visit of the artist to Madrid in 1983 organized by Vijande, and the most personal portraits of Warhol photographed by Christopher Makos in the 'Imágenes Alteradas' series, where gender identity is considered as a central theme.
The Suñol Soler Collection creates a unique dialogue at the Museo Lázaro Galdiano in Madrid with works by Warhol and the photographs from the 'Altered Images' series by Christopher Makos, in a proposal that collides his avant-garde art with the historical museum collections.
