Factory Made: Warhol and the Sixties

In the 1960s he also purchased the camera to begin his film career. Then he made the cult films “Chelsea Girls” and “Empire and Blow Job”. It’s interesting that the main characters were lunatics, transfections, models, etc. In 1963 he founded his own studio called “The Factory” to bring together painters, musicians, writers and other artists around him.

One of the most important years in his life was in 1968 when he survived the assassination. It is very affected by his mental and physical health in the following years. He was mad about Christian rituals, went to Mass every Sunday, and the pope was the most important person in the world.

Andy Warhol Exhibition Opens In Zadar

I believe that there are not so many opportunities for some good exhibitions in Croatia, although over the years the situation is improving and every opportunity should be utilized. I am so glad that I could attend this exhibition and see the works of such a great artist. The ticket price is 80 kuna and 60 kunas for students.
