Member’s Preview: Andy Warhol

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the members’ preview of Andy Warhol: Portraits from The Factory. The exhibition is produced in partnership with the Green family and we would like to extend a sincere thank you to them for the generous loan of these artworks. 

This exhibition is the fourth in a series that we have had held showcasing the Green family’s private collection. The first, Rebel with A Cause: Shepard Fairey, was held in 2017; followed by What’s Poppin’: Pop Art and Its Influence, held in 2019, and most recently, Simplicity of Form: Unfolding Abstraction in 2023.

Curated by Eve Godet-Thomas, Andy Warhol: Portraits from The Factory displays artworks created between 1967 and 1987 in Factory Additions, Warhol’s screen-printing business which pioneered a commercial approach to art making.

Every BNG exhibition is accompanied by a BNG Kids Activity Book. For this exhibition, the activity book gives information about the artist, encourages young people to try their hand at drawing portraits and has an interactive component in the Gallery where young people can use an instant camera to capture the subject of their portrait.

Free tours of this exhibition are available for schools and camps. Those interested in booking a tour are invited to sign up on our website or email Officer of Community Engagement, Programming and Learning Mikaela Joy Kawaley-Lathan at programming@bng.bm

Andy Warhol: Portraits from The Factory will be on display through to January 2026.
