今回紹介するのは、ニューヨークのホイットニー美術館にて大盛況のちもうすぐ終了予定の展覧会、「Andy Warhol—From A to B and Back Again」。誰しもが聞いたことのあるコンテンポラリーアートの大巨匠、アンディ・ウォーホルの大規模な回顧展で、1989年以降アメリカで初めて開催されることになり、世界から注目を集めている。数あるニューヨークの現代美術館の中でも、ホイットニー美術館はアメリカを舞台に活躍したアーティストたちの作品を中心に展示することで有名。アメリカのみならず世界の美術史を代表するアーティスト、ウォーホルの回顧展を開催するにはうってつけの美術館だ。

ゲイ、移民の子として大恐慌時代の米ペンシルベニア州ピッツバーグに生まれた少年アンドリュー・ウォーホラは、ニューヨークへとわたり、グラフィックデザイナーとして活動を開始。アーティストとして注目されるにつれ、誰もが知るアイコニックな「アンディ・ウォーホル」へと成長した。彼のメジャーな美術界に対する功績としては、商業美術の制作手法だったシルクスクリーンをファインアートの現場に持ち込んだことなどが挙げられる。また自身のスタジオ「ファクトリー」は、当時のアーティストやミュージシャン、モデル、俳優が出入りする溜まり場になるなど、文化的な貢献にも繋がった。

本展では、1987年の彼の死後、新たに発見されてきた資料や積み重ねられてきた研究をもとに、彼の知られざる面を覗くことができる。
代表的なキャンベルスープの缶や、ブリロ・ボックスを積み重ねたインスタレーション、マリリン・モンローの作品群、そして電気椅子の作品など教科書でも見たことのある作品が天井まで埋め尽くさんと大量に展示されている様は、圧巻のひとことに尽きる。さらに80年代の晩年の作品も展示。アーティストとして駆け出したばかりだった彼がどうやって我々の知るアンディ・ウォーホルになったのか、そしてアンディ・ウォーホルになった後も我々が知らなかった彼の一面、当時の社会の一瞬を切り取る鋭いまなざしが、そこには確かに存在する。
