March 04 – April 30, 2005

Opening reception: March 19, 6–8 pm

Lora Reynolds Gallery is pleased to present the inaugural exhibition: Andy Warhol: Black and White. This exhibition presents 18 unique works on paper dating from 1974 to 1986.

The show includes unique trial proofs and unpublished prints from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Many of the unpublished prints utilize the exact screens that Warhol used in his paintings and may be thought of as "drawings" in terms of Warhol's working process.

This is the first time these impressions have been exhibited. Included are iconic Warhol images – such as Marilyn Monroe and the Electric Chair from the Retrospective and Reversals series – as well as two unique trial proofs of Muhammad Ali from 1978. Late ad work from the 1980s, in which Warhol appropriated advertising images from popular culture, is also on view.

Andy Warhol died on February 22, 1987 due to complications from gall bladder surgery. His work is part of significant public and private collections worldwide and has been the subject of major exhibitions at numerous institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, New York in 1989 and the Austin Museum of Art in 2003.
