Thomas Crow Lecture 

When: Thu., April 8, 7 p.m. 2010
Price: free
When Andy Warhol uttered his now-infamous prophecy in 1968, many were pleased to write it off as just another kooky kōan from the King of the Weirdos. Pushing 50 years now, the man's legend continues to be blessed (cursed?) with way more than “15 minutes of fame.” This latest installment of Lipscomb University's Presidential Lectureships for Art and Art History explores the elusive prominence of an artist whose total ubiquity is offset only by the ambivalence his work and ideas continue to inspire. Thomas Crow is the Rosalie Solow Professor of Modern Art History at the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University. His essay on Warhol's interchanges with Bob Dylan would serve as a great amuse bouche for this main course: “Understanding Andy Warhol/Understanding Contemporary Art.”
