Andy Warhol’s colorful silkscreens from the 1950s and 60s—Marilyn Monroe! Campbell’s Soup Cans!—are among the most celebrated images of the 20th century. During those same years, Warhol also worked for various textile manufacturers: Stehli Silks, Fuller Fabrics Inc., and M. Lowenstein and Sons. He created approximately 45 designs that used an array of all-American images: toffee apples, lemons, pretzels, ice cream sundaes, and even an endearing bunch of circus clowns. This work almost certainly fueled his interest in kitsch. “Andy Warhol: The Textiles” offers yet another view into the multifaceted King of Pop. —Elena Clavarino
