(Translated by Google Translate)

Asia traveling exhibition that is organized around the work of Andy Warhol Museum America, of Pittsburgh, will be held in Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing.

And down the long elevator of Roppongi Hills, the approach followed by the entrance, BMW that Warhol painted had been exhibited.

After graduating from college, he started the work of designers of advertising of fashion magazines, Warhol was eventually successful.

The entrance of the venue, work of such initial line up.

And looked like male figure dress shoes, stockings, women, fashion model, full of design sense, the number of illustrations for various magazines.

From this work, I seen that certain of the design sense of Warhol.

When it comes to the 1960s, Warhol turned to the artist. Thereby, it should be talking about work on the theme Campbell soup, Marilyn Monroe, and Presley, immediately, was a great success.

Work depicting as it can of the famous Campbell soup. In the first version, and drawn like a painting still normal, polite, but drawn by hanging on purpose ink.

In the 1970s, use the technique of silk screen, you begin to order portrait. If you pay $ 25,000 one point, everyone was writing me a portrait of his Warhol.

If he want to join the party lot, he can offer to sell shares the portrait to celebrities, in the advertising it, Warhol, solicited customers in general.

The venue, such as the portrait of Ryuichi Sakamoto Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, and Valentino, were lined with.

Then, work of about 1,000 points are made about, Warhol was a lot of money in the hands of several billion yen.

The term of art era is over, the era of art and business, come, Warhol was practice it themselves.

He sat in the office dressed a suit, literally, Warhol at the time, that had received the order on the phone as a business man.

A number of works that Warhol has collaborated young artists, and Basquiat people. "As we saw today, this picture is the most interesting" was visiting the venue, one of the young women, was saying.

Due to that we have the familiar silk screen of Warhol, Basquiat original painting is probably looked very much fresh.

The wall of each corner of the venue, other words, is also used in the name of the exhibition "the future everyone will be famous only 15 minutes" that, Warhol sayings of many written were.

As a copy, words such irony of Warhol was put, was introduced in a variety of mass media. In that sense, it would nice to say his work.

The work you have included a photograph of Warhol, many celebrities of the 1980s from the 1960s appeared.

In addition to the Monroe and Presley, 13 Elizabeth Taylor, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Muhammad Ali, President Reagan, Pope Paul, etc., such as Mao Zedong.

In that era, man who spent youth is looking at such a work of Warhol, absolutely, it's own at that time come to overlap.

In this exhibition, it will become in such a nostalgic mood, you were not expecting it at all.

This exhibition was a traveling exhibition of Asia by the Warhol Museum. Normally, goods or catalogs that are sold at the shop of the Mori Art Museum had been made at a special corner of the venue all.

Rather than the Mori Art Museum, sales, will enter the organizers were planning a traveling exhibition Asia. The sponsor, the name of global companies such as financial services BNY Mellon, Bloomberg, and Christie's are lined up.

Sight like a symbol of Warhol told era of art and business, come, what is that, looked like a work of Warhol like.
