That’s amazing that South Korea has its own Andy Warhol exhibit! I visited the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, U.S.A. (his hometown) a few years ago. It is a 7 story building that pretty much shows the same exhibits you saw here. And yes, photography was banned, as well. Love him or hate him, Andy was a savvy Entrepreneur who knew how to combine pop art and commercialism to his benefit.

Andy Warhol fascinates me. I wish I could see his works somewhere too. I loved the sneaker painting, and of course, his bust! Very good work!

In reply to Michele {Malaysian Meanders}. Hi Michele. Yeah, Andy is just a little too life like for his own good!

In reply to Paula McInerney. Hi Paula. Thank you! There is always something going on in Seoul. Work gets in the way of serious exploration right now, but I'm sure that will change as I get settled into the new position.

In reply to Rachel Heller. Hi Rachel. I'm not sure why it didn't come up on your radar. Although, until this recent visit, I had never been the history and culture park. It was a great place to spend and evening.

In reply to Mary. Hi Mary. There is definitely something for everyone here, and I think you would enjoy it. Andy Warhol was interesting, I loved the collage photography that he produced for so many famous people. Apparently, he was very much in demand.
