All Tomorrow's Parties

Film still Andy Warhol, Afternoon, 1965 (16mm film transferred to digital file, black-and-white, sound, 100 minutes) Collection of The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh; Contribution The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc.

‘All Tomorrow’s Parties’ focuses on two often overlooked aspects of Andy Warhol’s multifaceted oeuvre: printed matter and film. The exhibition brings together a selection of books, magazines and posters from the archive of Herbert Foundation, alongside 22 films on loan from The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. With its focus on film and printed matter, ‘All Tomorrow’s Parties’ offers a different perspective on Warhol’s oeuvre, beyond the conventional focus on painting.

Across both media, Warhol employs a mode of production described as “carefully unplanned” – recorded conversations are transcribed verbatim into book form, including spelling errors, mirroring his film practice in which the camera is set up and left to run with minimal interference. The end product appears unmediated and even indifferent in its execution, but is, on closer attention, carefully constructed.

‘All Tomorrow’s Parties’ opens with a presentation of Warhol’s printed matter, introducing visitors to his practice as a writer, publisher and maker of books. This is followed by a series of exhibition rooms, each dedicated to a different aspect of Warhol’s filmmaking practice. The film selection will change several times over the course of the exhibition.

Collection Imaginaire
Although Warhol is not represented in the collection of Herbert Foundation, he occupies a prominent place within its archive. The exhibition thereby explores the Collection Imaginaire of Annick and Anton Herbert – a selection of artists considered essential to their intellectual and artistic framework, even if their work is not represented in the collection.

The Herberts placed particular emphasis on Warhol’s printed matter and films rather than his well-known Pop Art works. In these aspects of Warhol’s practice, they recognised an artistic approach that questioned established ideas about the artwork, authorship and the art world.
