Andy Warhol: Toy Paintings
For the Whole Family
In 1983, Andy Warhol created a series of works for children, combining paintings and silkscreens, based on toys he collected. Alongside the exhibited works, visitors can paint, work with stamps, dress up as Warhol, be photographed, listen to his story, "buy" at the image supermarket, become acquainted with and draw inspiration from his works' characteristics – bright colors, layers of lines and patches and replicated images. A workshop nearby offers visitors an experience of screen printing.
