Special displays will be dedicated to ‘Marilyn, Liz, Jackie and Elvis’, ‘Portraits of the 1970s and 1980s’, ‘Consumer Products’, ‘Death and Disaster’, ‘Skulls’, ‘Stitched Photographs’, and ‘War, Death and Religion’.
The important installation Silver Clouds (1966) - a room of floating silver-coloured helium balloons - will be included in the display and a number of Time Capsules and Screen Tests are among the many works on loan from the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. There will be a special recreation of Warhol's 1983 Zurich exhibition. Paintings for Children, with artworks hung at child's eye level.
