About
The exhibition "Thirteen Most Wanted Men" by Andy Warhol took place at Galerie Ileana Sonnabend in Paris in April 1967. This exhibition featured Warhol's series of silkscreen paintings that were originally created for the 1964 World's Fair. The works portrayed mugshots of the NYPD's most wanted criminals, provoking a blend of fascination and controversy due to the juxtaposition of criminal imagery and Warhol's pop art style.
It is said Andy Warhol himself stapled and prepared a very limited number of these. He handed them out to people as they headed into the Gallery to see his famous Thirteen Most Wanted Men exhibition.

His New York studio, The Factory, became a cultural hub for artists, musicians, and celebrities. Warhol's influence extended beyond visual arts into film, music, and publishing, making him a pivotal figure in 20th-century art and culture. His legacy endures through his groundbreaking approach to art and his commentary on the intersection of art, commerce, and celebrity culture .
