A free exhibition inspired by Warhol is on at the Saatchi Gallery this weekend

Five emerging UK artists have created their interpretations of the “Other Half” of Andy Warhol's Absolut “blue” painting for a new exhibition. 

Absolut is hosting "Absolut Warhol: The Other Half" at the Saatchi Gallery from 4 to 6 October, with free admission. The exhibition space takes inspiration from Warhol's Silver Cloud Factory, encouraging visitor interaction with art.

The featured artists come from diverse backgrounds and disciplines, including Kelly Anna's bold figures, Ken Nwadiogbu's hyperrealism, and Alexa Sirbu's hyperreal 3D design. Their works add contemporary perspectives to Warhol's iconic style, exploring themes of identity, movement, and cultural commentary.

Absolut's initiative continues their tradition of supporting diverse and avant-garde artists, a commitment that began with their collaboration with Warhol in 1985. The exhibition underlines Absolut's dedication to fostering creativity and cultural inclusivity while honouring Warhol's legacy.
