GWU art gallery receives 152 Warhol photographs

Imagine having 28,543 Andy Warhol photos to spread around. That's how many the Andy Warhol Foundation is busy handing out, to 183 college and university art museums, as part of its Andy Warhol Photographic Legacy Program.

Here in the District, George Washington University has received a nice little stack of 152 images, of which 16 have gone on view in its Luther W. Brady Art Gallery, alongside works by other artists of Warhol's era. At their best, Warhol's photos give a fine sense of the artist's mind and eye at work.

"Warhol: Photographs Selected From the GW Permanent Collection" runs through March 5 at the Luther W. Brady Art Gallery of George Washington University, 805 21st St. NW. Call 202-994-1525 or go to http://www.gwu.edu/bradyart. Free, open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays to Fridays.
