The Andy Warhol works are a long-term loan from the National Gallery of Australia with support from the Australian Government as part of Sharing the National Collection initiative. The partnership will see the Wanneroo Regional Gallery display over 50 artworks by Andy Warhol over a two-year period from March 2024, with a small selection of pieces on display and rotated every three months.
A new, discrete selection of some of the most recognisable symbols of Pop Art, the Campbell’s Soup Cans, will be on display from 12 June along with a larger-than-life painting of Elvis.
These works will be exhibited in a small section of the Gallery alongside the City’s main exhibition, the annual Community Art Awards and Exhibition, which showcases over 140 works from talented local artists in the City and beyond.
