Andy Warhol at the Wexner - Queer-O-Rama #1

Does it get any queerer than Andy Warhol? After seeing the exclusive retrospective on his career at the Wexner Center for the Arts on the campus of Ohio State University in Columbus, we'd have to say "no." It was so extensive and so ingenously put together that we felt like this show topped other displays of his work that we had seen at the Contemporary Museum of Art in Chicago, and even at Andy Warhol's own museum in Pittsburgh! The only thing missing was Warhols' famous disaster photos, an example of which is pictured here. This amazing body of work was somewhat overwhelming to experience all at once! If you haven't seen the show yet, you should head over there ASAP, as it runs only until February 15.
