Thirty years after its debut in Milan, Andy Warhol's monumental series, The Last Supper, graces the walls of the Museo del Novecento once again. The exhibition marks the 30th anniversary of Warhol's passing and offers a mesmerizing immersion into the artist's final major cycle.
Warhol's The Last Supper reinterprets the iconic Renaissance fresco by Leonardo da Vinci, translating it into a pop art masterpiece.

The exhibition showcases Warhol's exploration of themes like consumerism, celebrity, and religious iconography. Visitors can delve into the artist's unique perspective, where everyday objects and famous images become profound expressions of modern culture.
The Last Supper stands as a testament to Warhol's enduring legacy, his ability to bridge the gap between high and low art, and his enduring fascination with the interplay between art and society. As we mark 30 years since his passing, this exhibition serves as a vibrant and thought-provoking tribute to one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
