Andy Warhol at Tate Modern - Exhibition Tour | Tate
Although our galleries are temporarily closed we wanted to share the Andy Warhol exhibition at Tate Modern with you. Join Tate curators Gregor Muir and Fiontán Moran as they discuss Warhol through the lens of the immigrant story, his LGBTQI identity and concerns with death and religion.

Andy Warhol re-opens at Tate Modern on 27 July and has been extended until 15 November 2020. Book tickets via our website: www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate...

We have become aware that in our rush to share this video we overlooked a couple of typos in the captions. Here are the correct spellings: Pittsburgh (at 2:31) and Robert Mapplethorpe (at 6:02). Thanks for watching!

I was a student in New York during mid to late 70s and saw Andy at parties. He was the nicest person I met in NYC. Always asked how I my studies were going. Great guy!

As an art lover I like to visit museums, galleries and art studios. However, this is not possible now because of the corona crisis. Many thanks for showing me my daily portion of art (history) videos. It is always a pleasure to watch a video on this youtube channel. Very informative and entertaining in the days when we are more staying into our homes and cannot visit a museum. Thanks for sharing.

Wow thank you Tate for bringing some art into our lives when we're unable to experience it.
Thank you Tate Modern for giving us this little look at what we are missing out on - Stay safe! - we are looking forward to come over to London to see you all soon again!
This exhibit was just here in Chicago at the Art Institute. Breathtaking. I absolutely loved it.
Counting down the days until we can return ... in the meantime, this is a glorious taster of the exhibition. Thank you.
A wonderful opportunity for those of us not living in the UK to enjoy a taste of the Tate. Thank you so much - excellent
The Man The Artist was a Genius .
Fantastic treat, thank you for cheering us up. T think all these paintings are so close but unattainable for now. Can't wait to get to the Tate Modern after it re-opens. Stay safe.
Warhol's work changed dramatically, after meeting Joseph Beuys, additionally, A to B and back again is an interesting airport novelette.
Great stuff. In the world of pop art, there was Andy, and then there was everyone else.
Brilliant. I saw it before the closure, loved it. To see those iconic paintings in the flesh, and the video installation with a young Velvet Underground - how young is Lou Reed there, 19, 20?.... Can't wait to come back - so missing you, Tate. Thanks for this - fantastic!..
Idea of identity, music, silver clouds, gunshots, portraits, recording life, death and religion. Thanks for the walk through, Tate.

The idea of silver clouds and gunshots especially idea-like.
Is there currently a virtual tour of this exhibition? There should be!! Also, I truly appreciate how this video was done. There is a wonderful blanket of calm and silence, even between the gallerists. Very much like entering a museum and being the first handful to enter, roam and engulf an exhibition in almost solitude. No crowds, no flash and pomp---which, the lack thereof, is also what makes the gentleman in the clip more pleasing to watch. It's a delight to see and hear two people just provide information, insight in a focused manner. Fantastic exhibition...and you were right, there are pieces here I've never seen exhibited. They should be!! Thank you for posting. Absolutely marvelous.
Intriguing. Thank you. I sincerely hope I am able to see the exhibition when the Tate reopens
Thankyou Tate Looking forward to my next visit Stay safe and healthy
We were coming up to London on the 27th March, so disappointed! We will get there though. Thank you for this snippet.
Thank you ! what a great taster for the exhibition...I hope it will be extended and after the covidian interlude we can come and see the paintings themselves...
The best summary of Warhol and his change through life and only in 7 min. Amazing job!
Thanks Tate really looking forward to seeing this exhibition by the looks of the taster well worth waiting for.
Thanks Tate for putting this out!
Thanks, Tate, hope to visit you soon.
Thanks Tate! I'm counting down the days...
Thank you for sharing! Wonderful
Thank you so much for this!
Absolutely awesome! Difference through repetition..... Thank you for this video!
Thank you!!! Very inspiring!
Wonderful segment. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this, I had tickets for this exhibition but due to Covid 19 the gallery closed. I am hoping that it is still on when the restrictions are lifted
Thankyou for the tour, excellent ! A future wish would be.... could it be a lot longer and more in depth, it was really good !. But thankyou for the insight, really appreciate it ! I will be walking through the turbine hall again very soon I hope !!
Thank you so much for this video. My family and I had tix for 16 March 2020. We had to postpone our vacation to the UK and France. Stay well. Keep these wonderful videos rolling please!!

Art and music are the two things that makes me think that we may one day embrace our differences. In what other arena might these two very different gentlemen share a chat?
Thank you! Great idea!
Great.. Thank you.!
Love it thanks
Great video and love the way you describe how Andy Warhol changes their art after they get shot into those colourful paintings instead of the dark ones they did.
Fantastic that you've made this on lieu of not being able to see it in person right now. Thank you
Awasome !!!
I had not really thought Warhol’s art was beautiful before, but the colour here is so life affirming. It has actually made me cry. Thank you for this breath of art air Tate.

I LOVE Andy Warhol's work and aesthetic to the point of taking up screen printing myself, but my deeper scrutiny of and reflection on his body of work has led me to believe that his signature works, such as the soup cans, Brillo boxes, Marilyns, Liz Taylors and the parade of other celebrity portraits, won't have the kind of staying power that other modern revolutionary artists' will. The works of Cezanne, Matisse, Van Gogh, Picasso, etc, all emerged from their respective specific eras, of course, but almost uniformly (Guernica aside) their works don't overtly reference the cultural context of their times, or rely on "getting" an ironic joke about either elevating the mundane (soup cans, etc) to "icons" or reducing the already iconic (Marilyn, Liz, Elvis, Mao, etc) to the mundane. Time marches on inexorably, and it won't be long before no one but art or culture historians remember who Marilyn or Liz were, and the works will have to stand completely on their own, stripped of irony or in-crowd "hipness," like the long-dead but now completely anonymous sitters of earlier portraitists. Will just one more Mao variation, its underlying screen print identical underneath the surface embellishments of the one just before and just after it in the run (remind me - just who was this "Mao" fellow anyway?) still be considered a "major" or "important" work of art? I'm beginning to doubt it. If one pays millions for a Liz or Elvis, there is an inherent expectation that the owner and viewers of the piece will know exactly who the subjects are, and why they inspired the piece. If a now-unknown silent film starlet was given the same treatment - same size, same composition, same colors - would the piece command millions? I think we all know the answer. Is Warhol's work "important?" Undoubtably, and I believe it will remain highly regarded, if perhaps not venerated as it is now. Was Duchamp's? Of course - but when was the last time anyone went to an elegant home and found a urinal displayed prominently on a table in the living room?

Godfrey Daniel! (Sorry. I had to do that.) Great art does not "overtly reference" cultural context, it provides it. But to your attempt (Brillo, Campbell's): Picasso's Gitane cigarettes? (Marilyn): Toulouse-Lautrec's "Jane Avril? Mid-20th Century Art (my caps) belonged to the US. Even Picasso was wrapping up the end-game for Europe, Surrealism having played itself out (Dada is everlasting, obviously). Ab-Ex ignored American culture (Dekooning's Marilyn {ahem} aside), Pop reflected it. +~+ I'm not finished, but must go to bed, I hear the damned rooster. TBC

Do you remember who Lady Agnew was? But you know the painting, right? Arguably the most beautiful of John Singer Sargent's portraits. Just who was this "Agnew" lady, anyway? Can you come up with the names of any of the sitters for Sargent's paintings? Does the fact that you don't know the people in his portraits relegate those paintings to history's trash pile? What about Whistler's some few hundred paintings of his various vain and moneyed contemporaries? There's a young woman in a white dress with her back to a fireplace; if you know your art (and it seems that you must have some knowledge, or you wouldn't be putting this argument forward, right?) then you should be able to immediately conjure that beautiful, full-scale portrait with your mind's eye, and maybe even the name that's been given to the painting, a nickname, really. Nice picture, eh? OK, quick! What's her name? Why was she painted? Who IS this woman? "The long-dead but now completely anonymous sitters of earlier portraitists". . . The history of painters painting people is thoroughly recorded and at the fingertips of any interested, curious student of that traditional genre, in countless books on groaning shelves in numerous libraries, everywhere. Wow. Just look at all those books; Gainsborough, Constable. Don't even get me started on Holbein, the absolute greatest portraitist of all, anywhere, at any time. Uh, oh. Too late. Here's an easy one for you. "The Ambassadors"; You know, those two guys standing there in front of all those instruments of science and music and art. They were very famous in their time -- we know their faces, their nice clothing, the anamorphic apparition at their feet. Who ARE those guys? Who ARE all these painted people? They were known in their time to their contemporaries, some were famous, some only rich and vain enough to order a picture by the most in-demand portraitists of the day. Not unlike Warhol's side game, the 4'x4' society portraits he did for just about anyone who was willing to meet his $$$$. His 'B' game. Liz, Elvis, Marilyn, Jackie, Mao, Money, Soup Cans, Electric Chairs Skulls, on & on & on. Yeah, those will still be icons of the time they were screened, painted, made, manufactured. If you're gonna study the art made in that time, you'll be looking at Warhol. Three hundred years hence, they'll be familiar to the interested, just as Vermeer, and Rembrandt, and (I dare say) Leonardo are familiar to us now. As for your remarks on Duchamp, if you think the physical 'things' he left in the room to illustrate an idea are more important or have more relevance than the idea itself, you're missing his point entirely. All the stuff is just evidence, mon frere. Marcel was then, is now, and forever will be the most important artist of the last century. But I've made too many words on a screen for now. And I'm sure that anyone who would like to have a urinal in his/her living room will find a way to get one and put it there.

@@luiscuixara4622 - That's an awful lot of words to say you don't understand what I said. The very painting you describe proves my point - it doesn't matter who she is because the painting is off-the charts amazing. With Warhol, who the portrait is of matters. A lot. If the portraits were amazing in and of themselves as bravura works of art, it wouldn't matter, but his approach, color choices and technique are easily replicated. God forgive me - but even I can do it. As you said yourself, there are any number of paid sittings of people who thought they were important or trendy or just rich enough to join the club - but none of them are valued for anything other than being a Warhol. A generation or two from now, even the Marilyns, Maos, and Lizzes will be prized thusly - not "I have a Marilyn" but "I have a Warhol." Comprende?

Unsure if anyone will be able to help me with this ... but I went to see this a few week back (absolutely fantastic) I was to scared to film but there was a tv in one of the room which played a interview and had a music video! I was supposed to write down the song but I forgot! Long shot but if anyone knows what the song was I would appreciate it Thank you
Is there any chance of a virtual reality tour or a video tour which shows us what the exhibition is like in the space? It seems a shame to let it sit empty without an audience to visit and experience it.

Hi! We hope this video gives you a glimpse of how the exhibition feels and the curators’ reasoning behind their artwork selections. As the Warhol exhibition was only open for less than a week before lockdown, we are quite lucky to have gotten the chance to film this before travel restrictions were put in place. :)
first track id?
You can watch an independent film about the Warhol exhibition on The Art Channel at kzread.info/dash/bejne/go6F0cSso6ixXdo.html
With all respect to Tate Modern and Andy Warhol’s body of work; I feel that AWarhol’s Work have been over exposed and very much talked about for many years now. Having so many valuable artists, artists less exposed or still to be investigated with an amazing body of work, I feel that having another AWarhol show is repetitive, it shows what we already know. It does not surprise us. It also feels suspicious that they decide that it’s time to talk about his work again. So many artists to talk about, but somehow it’s time to talk about Warhol again and again. I hope everyone is fine in their home. All the best.

Good evening Mr Turnbridge, I hope you are well, thank you for your question. I believe that the more we see, the better. I watched the video from beginning to end, hoping with enthusiasm to see if I could learn something new about AWarhor’s work in this show. Sometimes there’s is new information, stones unturned and it is a good to be aware of those things. I have seen Warhols work (An artist I admire very much) and studied it since I was an art student in the late 80s, I have always admired his work very much, but, big museums and institutions have such a big responsibility to their audience that I feel there is so much more than putting up shows with what we know already, there is always so much more to learn if we look at an artist from a new perspective. Artists should be creative and so museums in the way they present works of art. I am open to learn new things from established names, but I believe we can be so much more exigent or demanding (in a good way) as audience in order to find a new perspective or a new way to look at certain artists that have already been studied in many many ways. The exhibition should target audiences from al levels of knowledge. I hope I responded to your question. Take care !
Another Warhol show? Groundbreaking.
What influences Art is confusing to me.What distinguishes a masterpiece from a portrait is determined by someone who knows what they're looking at and why it represents something special. Not me.I more likely to look like a fool cuz i think all paintings offer something special just cuz somebody took the time to paint it.

It means his 'gay' identity. "Queer' is an old-fashioned term for homosexual. Originally 'queer' meant odd or unusual. Then later 'gay' was appropriated as being positive since gay (and gaiety) suggests happiness, light-heartedness and cheerfulness.

It has always been. Only not as a matter of ideology but personal urge. They way they push it at the Tate is reminiscent of Communist countries, where art was expected to serve ideology.

People liken Koons to Warhol, but they are opposites. Warhol, just got bigger and bigger as he aged. Koons peaked in the 1980s, and has lost relevance long ago. Other than ramping the market.
He was a genius, but he also used people, sucked the soul out of them and didn't look back when they weren't interesting to him anymore.
that's art? Then dog shit must be art too
Kitsch
He was a devout Catholic and actively claimed virginity his entire life. Maybe he wasn't super proud of homosexuality
How to appropriate historically-bound artefacts to bolster flimsy contemporary phenomena. Engage with thought and behaviour from the immediate context of these works - as they happened - and then the dialogue between that and contemporary lived lives - not as a direct correlate. The latter's very lazy.... and potentially dangerous.
I wish Andy Warhol controlled MY life! Sigh...
