Calendar / Past Events

To open the Fall art season in Los Angeles, a exhibition specially curated by David Fahey, with a studio visit in New York City, is where this exhibition began, and will be showing over 40 works, among many disciplines, from classical Black and  Photos, to a series of "Sewn Photos, along with a number of darkroom collages, spaning the years from the early 70's up to the current day.

This exhibit is Warhol away from the Factory, away from New York, enjoying a restorative and deep engagement with the natural environment, at the beach, in the woods and in the Colora-do mountains. The exhibit challenges the caricatured image of the commercial, caracturized And Warhol as a plastic figure obsessed with consumerism, advertising and shallow society.

In this work a more gentle Warhol emerges. He is seen relaxing at Eothen, his Montauk, Long Is-land, seaside home; enjoying Central Park where he found tranquility in the middle of Manhattan’s madness; and skiing on the slopes and through the forestss in the Colorado mountains. Warhol’s connection to nature, as surprising and unexpected as some may find it, ultimately led him to be-queath his multi-million dollar Montauk property to The Nature Conservancy, which established a preserve and visual arts program in his honor.

Daniel Cooney Fine Art is pleased to announce our second solo exhibition by Christopher Makos titled MONEY. A career montage featuring unseen vintage work from every stage of the artist’s life, MONEY features a selection of over 60 unique photographs, collages, and assemblages that celebrate the money shot: daring, climactic and outrageous.

Join us for a discussion with artist Christopher Makos and Jessica Beck, Milton Fine curator of art, to celebrate the release of his new book Andy Warhol Modeling Portfolio Makos—a photographic portrait of Andy Warhol’s early modeling career.

In celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the Wahrol trip to China, which started in Hong Kong, and then as a surprise to our party, the art dealer Jeffrey Deitch, organized a 3 day trip to Beijing. This exhibition, is a visual celebration of that trip

This exhibit has now been moved to Noon Consulting art and will be exhibited there until April 25th Please visit the exhibition at Chaussée De Louvain 803 1140 Bruxelles

Echo to the exhibition « Warhol – The American Dream Factory » organised by Tempora in La Boverie Museum of Liège

PRESS RELEASE

Christopher Makos, né en 1948 dans le Massachusetts, grandit en Californie et s’installa à New York après sa scolarité. Dans les années 70, il part à Paris pour suivre des études d’architecture et travaille comme apprenti auprès de Man Ray.

This exhibition has already opened, and is still availble to view in person, or online

A special curated selection of unique silver gelatin print curated in collaboration with Daniel Cooney. Some "Sewn Photo", some collage images, and all Silver Gelatin prints from the Makos archives

This exhibition of Warhol's work comes directly from the TATE MODERN in London, where I participated with my Altered Images works that Andy and I colaborated on, these same works will be show at this venue

This exhbition is about the "American-ness" of Warhol, and how he was the ultimate American artist, finding his inspiration in everything American. I am participating in this show with my photographs which show and support Andy being that American artist that he is, and was.

The 25 giclee prints in this exhibition document the 1980s in America and Germany, particularly the generation of New York artists and musicians who came to fame then. Makos had a column in Warhol’s magazine Interview, where many of these images first appeared. Most of the Berlin images were taken during Makos’ and Warhol’s trips to Germany during this period. These Makos images reflect the very rich cultural texture of this period on both sides of the Atlantic

I am Andy Warhol,» will start in April in the Exhibition Hall of The Russian Union of Artists located in the New Tretyakov Gallery on Krymsky Val. The exposition will include more than 170 Warhol's works, archival photographs, installations, and interactive objects. Visitors will see a multi-media zone created in pop-art style and will be able to watch film screenings about the life and work of the artist.

“My exhibit in Berlin is a salute to the ongoing global struggle for human rights and freedom in the face of repression, intolerance and hatred. As an artist, an American and a gay person, I know that 75 years ago, showing my work in Berlin could have resulted in my arrest and the pictures getting burned. Sadly, in some parts of the world, that could still happen today.

 Christopher Makos, a close friend of Andy Warhol’s, photographed the Pop artist with Georgia O’Keeffe in 1983.

Tony Vaccaro visited New Mexico in 1960 to photograph Georgia O’Keeffe for a Look magazine article about “Women of American Art.”

These two renowned photographers join Ellen Roberts, Harold and Anne Berkley Smith Curator of American Art, and Tim B. Wride, William and Sarah Ross Soter Curator of Photography, for a conversation about their experiences photographing O’Keeffe.

A Studio visit that is not exactly what one would expect, but one would be happy to stumple upon.

A collaboration between, Christopher Makos, Paul Solberg, and the Hilton Brothers 

Seidel City is pleased to present "Pictures from Russia, No Colusion, featuring works by Christopher Makos and Paul Solberg. The show will open with a public reception on Sept 14, 2019 from 7-10 pm with the artists in attendance, and will be on view from Sept 14 to November 17th. Seidel City will also host an talk by Ukrainian National  Luba Michailova on September 14 at 6:30 pm.

Lévy Gorvy is delighted to present Warhol Women, the first exhibition to fully explore Andy Warhol’s career-long celebration of womanhood and femininity, from his iconic images of film stars and self- proclaimed Factory “superstars,” to his celebrity and society portraits, and to his examination of gender in the Ladies and Gentlemen series.

Following the success of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s recent Warhol retrospective, Warhol Women will similarly demonstrate the artist’s extraordinary prescience in a very contemporary and potent context. No American artist has better understood the immense power of images to shape society. Warhol foresaw the democratization of celebrity and the advent of social media, just as he identified and characterized what constitutes an icon. He grasped the relationship between mass marketing and the ways in which women have been objectified and sanctified in consumer culture

In 1980s, China opened up its economy. More tourists got the chance to visit China, and there
were lots of internationally acclaimed artists among them. These artists observed the social
changes of China with their own perspectives, leaving precious records and unfolding unique
narratives. Meanwhile, the openness of economy and culture also accelerates the process of
urbanization. With the increasing flow of human capitals and ever-changing city scenes, everyone
is on the move and feels out of place now and then.

This is part of an exhibition that has traveled all over the world, and is having its first showing in Greece
