    Warhol Wednesday: Repetition

    3-4:30 PM
    
    Drop-in; first come, first served.
    
    Warhol used repetition and seriality in many of his works. This method highlighted our culture’s obsession with mass production. However, when taking a closer look at the repeating images, we can see how each printed iteration is unique. Come experiment with the mechanical process of repetition by using various images.
