Words can’t explain how happy I was in that museum.

“My outfit is a collection of thrifted finds and gifts from friends. I think a lot about energetic protection when I’m out and the layers of clothing and chain link clothing feel like ways of protecting me physically and energetically.”

The Museum of Modern Art opened its new building (the one we know today) on May 10, 1939. This timeline infographic (although they didn't use the word then) was drawn by Alfred Barr, the museum director, three years earlier for the cover of the catalog of an exhibit of Cubism and abstract art.

Campbell's Soup Cans (1962) 🎨 Andy Warhol 🏛️ The Museum of Modern Art 📍 New York City, United States

Andy Warhol famously appropriated familiar images from consumer culture and mass media, among them celebrity and tabloid news photographs, comic strips, and, in this work, the widely consumed canned soup made by the Campbell’s Soup Company. When he first exhibited Campbell’s Soup Cans in 1962, the canvases were displayed together on shelves, like products in a grocery aisle. At the time, Campbell’s sold 32 soup varieties; each one of Warhol’s 32 canvases corresponds to a different flavor. (The first flavor the company introduced, in 1897, was tomato).

Though Campbell’s Soup Cans resembles the mass-produced, printed advertisements by which Warhol was inspired, its canvases are hand-painted, and the fleur de lys pattern ringing each can’s bottom edge is hand-stamped. Warhol mimicked the repetition and uniformity of advertising by carefully reproducing the same image across each individual canvas. He varied only the label on the front of each can, distinguishing them by their variety. Warhol said of Campbell’s soup, “I used to drink it. I used to have the same lunch every day, for 20 years, I guess, the same thing over and over again.”

Towards the end of 1962, shortly after he completed Campbell’s Soup Cans, Warhol turned to the photo-silkscreen process. A printmaking technique originally invented for commercial use, it would become his signature medium and link his art making methods more closely to those of advertisements. “I don’t think art should be only for the select few,” he claimed, “I think it should be for the mass of the American people.”

“I’m rocking my own masterpieces – top, apron, and shorts are all my brainchildren from Commonwealth. I scored this Balenciaga tote bag from a secondhand store because who needs new when you can have gently used luxury? And don’t even get me started on these replica sandals my sister found for me at some sketchy downtown store – they’re so bad they’re good. Honestly, these sandals were the inspiration for this whole look, I wanted to look like I just rolled out of a Philippine beach party and onto the streets.”
