Congrats @pamm & @thewarholmuseum !! 'Marisol and Warhol Take New York' made the @tmagazine T-List this week!⁠ ⁠ Rose Courteau writes: "A surprising aspect of cultural erasure is that it can happen in plain sight. Consider María Sol Escobar, known mononymously as Marisol, who earned international renown in the 1960s for her wood carvings and sculptural assemblages — including clever depictions of the Kennedy family and British royals — only to fade into relative obscurity before her death in 2016. 'Marisol and Warhol Take New York,' at the Pérez Art Museum Miami, helps reset the record by showcasing some of the Paris-born Venezuelan artist’s most striking works, which combined Pop Art themes with pre-Columbian folk sensibilities, in conversation with those by her close friend Andy Warhol, who called her 'the first girl artist with glamour.' The retrospective, originally curated by @j.a.beck at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, is less interested in conferring primacy than establishing their contemporaneity and mutual influence: 'The Party,' an installation of 15 sculptural self-portraits by Marisol, is stationed directly in front of Warhol’s cow wallpaper, a nod to the fact that both debuted in April of 1966. In 1968, Marisol left New York for Europe — a move some have interpreted as a rejection of her success, though she continued to make art. For Maritza Lacayo, the assistant curator at the Pérez, there is no obvious explanation: 'I think [when] the world demanded a little bit too much of her, or things weren’t aligning with what she wanted, she would simply go elsewhere.'"⁠ ⁠ Read more about the stellar exhibition catalog via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #marisol #MarisolEscobar #warhol #andywarhol #marisolandwarholtakenewyork #marisolandwarhol #popart #tlist https://www.instagram.com/p/CcThFnKppPu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
