Andy Warhol. Passage in Italy 1975-1987

An exhibition arriving in Milan that examines Andy Warhol's relationship with Italy from 1975 to 1987. The show presents a curated route combining iconic works, archival documents and photographs to shed light on a lesser-known phase of the artist's career.

The display highlights two major series: Vesuvius, which transforms the Neapolitan volcanic motif through Warhol's pop and serial aesthetic, and The Last Supper, a complex meditation on religious imagery and artistic memory beyond a simple postmodern reinterpretation.

• Over 100 works and documents including paintings, prints, photographs and memorabilia.
• Archival material and photographs reconstructing the Italian cultural scene of the 1970s–80s.
• Graphic and musical section featuring LP covers and the Ladies and Gentlemen portraits.
• Works from the Crédit Agricole Collections in dialogue with Warhol's pieces (artists include Ettore Sottsass jr, Emilio Tadini, Hermann Nitsch, Daniel Spoerri, Novello Finotti).

The exhibition also explores the professional and cultural relationships Warhol developed with Italian figures and galleries, offering insight into the creative networks that shaped that period.
