Tue 1/9 @ 2PM
Of all the things you don’t expect to see at a natural history museum, Andy Warhol prints are probably high on the list. But the Cleveland Museum of Natural History owns a set of his Endangered Species prints, which are currently on display in its Corning Gallery.
Warhol designed the ten-image series in 1983, on the ten-year anniversary of the signing of the Endangered Species Act, producing 150 sets, one of which was donated to CMNH by a benefactor. You can see them during any visit to them museum but if you come on Tuesday or Thursday and stop in the gallery at 2pm, you can take in a gallery talk exploring the background of the prints and the threats to the animals they depict. It’s included with regular admission.
