ART AT THE CENTER |Andy Warhol. Between art and the supermarket.

Andy Warhol. Between art and the supermarket.
The brightest pop art star. Already in his lifetime he became a legend. Like the Marilyn Monroe he portrayed. Life on the edge, controversy, mass culture and the limits of art. Business and money. Duplication. Products as icons of art. All this will be found in the story of him, the man who locked art in cans of soup.

First, they: the most famous artists at the center of a story based on facts and the most fascinating biographies of creators, whose works hang in the most important museums of the world. Stories about heroes from canvases, about people whose bodies have been enchanted in sculptures for centuries, about objects, colors and abstractions that evoke beauty and delight, but also those that upset or provoke sadness.

Secondly: art in the center, but the congress one — the famous Katowice space in the Cultural Zone, which, apart from major events, is still open to residents and activities specially designed for them. We invite you to a series of meetings in which we visit museums and galleries of the world and tell in a human way what the famous paintings, sculptures or sketches hide, and reveal who their creators were.
