‘Lost Then Found’ Andy Warhol Exhibition In New York City

THE ARTS | MUSE Magazine

Last night saw the highly anticipated private view of Lost Then Found, an exhibition dedicated to never-before-seen portraits of the infamous pop artist Andy Warhol.

These Warhol portraits were taken in 1981 at the Royal Hotel, Paris by the young British photographer Steve Wood. After being convinced by mutual friend, Elaine Kaufman to work together (Wood strongly favoured classical artists such as Van Gogh), he decided to shoot the series of portraits. It is these images that had their first unveiling at 345meatpacking, New Yorkafter being hidden away for the past 30 years by Wood, being publically displayed until the 12th May.

The private viewing in true Warhol style, attracted people of the fashion and music scenes with famous faces that included Courtney Love, Norman Cook, Tziporah Salamon, Rodrigo Bazan and Ally Hilfiger.
