Past Event OUT OF THE BOX: Time Capsule opening with The Warhol’s Time Capsules Cataloguer Erin Byrne, Chief Archivist Matt Wrbican, Assistant Archivist Cindy Lisica and special guest Benjamin Liu
Join Time Capsules Cataloguer Erin Byrne, Chief Archivist Matt Wrbican, Assistant Archivist Cindy Lisica and special guest Benjamin Liu as they take the first look inside one of Andy Warhol’s mysterious boxes! Benjamin Liu is a former personal and studio assistant for Warhol and co-authored of the book, Unseen Warhol. Warhol was an avid collector of art, Fiestaware, photographs, newspapers, dental molds and especially the min utiae of his daily life.
In 1974, he began filling the first of his 600 Time Capsules with source material, correspondence and clothing. The Time Capsules reflect more than Warhol’s personal life—they act as an insightful snapshot of the time and contain a wealth of information for researchers.
While this event is ticketed, seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. Doors will open 1/2 hour prior to the event.
