Andy Warhol's Polaroids Of Sports Champions...
Would you go see this? The images look pretty cool online - not sure I'm compelled to go look at the actual 4 1/4 X 3 3/8 inch Polaroids, being displayed between now and Dec. 12 at the Danziger Project, in the meatpacking district on the west side of Manhattan.
Most of these photos were part of stage one in the process of ten paintings that Warhol did for art collector Richard Weissman in the late '70's called "Athletes Series." According to a press release from Danziger people, he later added a few more shots - like John McEnroe with Tatum O'neal. See the full set - 24 total - at Danziger Project's website.(Found via Newsweek Tumblr) Jock Art | Andy Warhol Polaroids (NYT)
