50 Years of the Warhol Factory: Photo Archives by Gerard Malanga
50 years after meeting Warhol, Gerard MALANGA shares his photographic archives.
To celebrate the 50 years of the creation of the Factory, B.K.W. Gallery presents an outstanding exhibition with photographies taken by Gerard MALANGA, photographer, but also poet, filmmaker and emblematic person of Andy Warhol's Factory.
This exhibition showcases New York's underground scene from the 60's the pop years. Its main characters are celebrated through these records (Dennis hopper, Patty Smith, Robert Mapplethorpe, The Velvet Underground, etc.) and also the Factory superstars (Andy Warhol, Nico, Bob Dylan, etc.).
These portraits were taken on the spot by one of the closest person to the Pop Art master in the beginning of the Factory. In fact, Gerard Malanga will express this relationship: «Andy and me, we were a mirror to each other ».
