Andy Warhol was the name of the major 1968 exhibition at Stockholm’s Moderna Museet.
The exhibition was organized by Swedish curator Pontus Hultén and helped introduce Warhol’s work to a broad European museum audience. It presented paintings, sculptures, films, and other material from different stages of his career.
Rather than focusing on one famous image, the show demonstrated the range of Warhol’s practice, from consumer-product imagery and celebrity portraits to experimental cinema and installation. Its presentation influenced later ideas about how a contemporary artist’s work could be staged in a museum.
The exhibition is sometimes confused with Warhol’s first European solo exhibition, held at Galerie Ileana Sonnabend in Paris in 1964. The Stockholm show was a major museum presentation, while the Paris event was a commercial gallery exhibition.
