Espace Louis Vuitton Returns with Andy Warhol Exhibition
After a few months of closure, Espace Louis Vuitton in the heart of Omotesando is making a return with an homage to Andy Warhol, one of the most well-known contemporary artists of all time. Considered a pioneer of the pop art movement, Warhol often blurred the boundaries between high culture and mass production, challenging artistic hierarchies and the commodification of objects, celebrities and art.
The exhibition, titled “Andy Warhol: Serial Portraits,” features a selection of Warhol’s portrait-themed works from the Fondation Louis Vuitton’s collection, ranging from masterpieces to lesser-known works. This traveling exhibition is part of the “Hors-les-murs” (Beyond the Walls) program, which will take place at Espace Louis Vuitton locations in Tokyo, Munich, Venice, Beijing, Seoul and Osaka.
