The upcoming exhibition at The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University entitled “Big Shots: Andy Warhol Polaroids,” features an amazing collection of famed celebrities and pop culture icons shot by Warhol from 1969 – 1986.

Described by the museum as “an important dimension of Warhol’s process in creating his famous large-scale portraits,” its clear the “Polaroids served as aids for painting portraits, in and of themselves they are significant works and represent a relatively unknown body of Warhol’s work.”
