Aurora Picture Show presents Outdoor Film: Warhol on TV + Menil by Moonlight, Friday, March 4, 7PM (Screening at 7:30PM). Location: Menil Park, 1515 Sul Ross. FREE.

The Menil Collection collaborates with Aurora Picture Show and the Andy Warhol Museum to present "Warhol on TV," a curated screening of excerpts of works created by or featuring the artist Andy Warhol. The program will include episodes from Andy Warhol's series "Andy Warhol's 15 Minutes," a cable television series from the 1980s which featured celebrities of the time interviewed by Warhol; "The Untitled Factory Diaries," Warhol's home movie series from the 60s and 70s, and highlights from his appearances on television sitcoms such as The Love Boat.

Warhol was an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the pop art movement.

Special thanks to The Warhol Museum, Art Lies Contemporary Quarterly and Houston Young People for the Arts for their support of this program.

The museum will be open till 9:00 p.m. in a special after-hours evening for new members, with all galleries open - and special incentives offered for joining the Menil (by moonlight!).
