Ladies and gentlemen 1975/2016 Andy Warhol
Ladies and gentlemen 1975/2016 Andy Warhol
Signore e signori, ecco a voi Andy Warhol!
40 anni dopo la mostra omonima organizzata da #Warhol e #Pasolini al Palazzo dei Diamanti di Ferrara, stavolta tocca alla nostra Bologna: da oggi fino al 2 febbraio 2016, la Galleria Cavour, il “salotto buono della città”, ospiterà “Ladies & Gentlemen 1975/2016 Andy Warhol”.
La mostra raccoglie e ripresenta agli spettatori moderni gli scatti che il padre della Pop Art fece non alle celebrità ma alla gente comune, dai travestiti dei bassifondi di New York ai volti della strada, gente sconosciuta e soggetti borderline.

Giovanna Acton, Wellesley College
I graduated from Wellesley College with a double major in International Relations and Italian Studies in May 2014. Currently, I am working in education at an elementary school with English Language Development (ELD) students, and am planning to attend graduate school in the near future. My experiences in Bologna helped me enormously both academically but also when seeking employment post-graduation. One of the great things about E.C.Co is it places you in an environment where you thrive academically and socially. Living with other Italian students improved my language enormously, and I am still in contact with many of those students.… Continue reading
