This autumn Spritmuseum presents the extensive exhibition Money on the wall. Andy Warhol. The curator is Blake Gopnik, one of the world’s foremost Warhol connoisseurs.
Money on the Wall focuses on one of the artist’s most recurring themes: money. In the exhibition, the visitor gets a unique opportunity to create a deeper understanding of Warhol’s artistry, and its connection to commerce and society. Money on the wall also places Warhol in a context with artists working on similar themes – from Warhol’s time to the present day.
In connection with the exhibition, Spritmuseum has the great pleasure of exhibiting, for the first time ever, the recovered artwork Absolut Warhol (the blue version). The painting is one of the two versions commissioned in 1985 by Absolut Vodka, but which fell into oblivion and were only rediscovered 30 years later. Since 2020, the work is once again part of the Absolut Art Collection.
Artists in this exhibition: Andy Warhol, Takashi Murakami, Jens Haaning, Andrea Fraser, Carey Young, Darren Bader, Edvard Munch, MSCHF and others.
