Andy Warhol: The Polaroids Exhibition

Warhol’s work is often reproduced, referenced, and remixed. But Polaroids are different in person. You feel the scale, the immediacy, the intimacy. You see the subtle tonal shifts, the flash, the candid tension, the quick decision-making. You can sense the artist’s presence, and the subject’s awareness of being seen.

From celebrity portraits to intimate studies, Andy Warhol: The Polaroids and Andy After Hours offer Western North Carolina a rare opportunity to experience Warhol’s lens up close, raw, immediate, and unmistakably iconic.
