Andy Warhol: My True Story, curated by Professor Jean Wainwright, has been reviewed by Claudia Barbieri for Artlyst.
"Andy Warhol: My True Story, the summer show at Newlands House Gallery, is a humanising portrait of one of Modern Art’s most sacred monsters. Curated by the art historian and critic Professor Jean Wainwright, it goes behind the fright wig and dark glasses of Warhol’s crafted persona to discover Uncle Andy, the family man, dog and cat lover, and home movie maker. Yes, he likes to fashion surreal alter-worlds in his Factory and to Pop Art-world pretensions with a Campbell’s Soup can opener. But he’s also a guy who likes to goof around with his friends."
Included in the exhibition are several 1960s-era photographs of Warhol by Bob Adelman, on loan from Westwood Gallery NYC. Also featured are two of Warhol’s screenprints from the gallery’s collection: Sitting Bull (c.1981) and Mona Lisa (Four Times) (1979), the latter recognized as one of his most iconic images.
Andy Warhol: My True Story is on view at Newlands House Gallery in Petworth, UK from June 7 through September 14, 2025.
