From 1976 until his death in 1987, Andy Warhol (U.S.A.,
1928-1987) was never without his camera. He snapped photos at discos,
dinner parties, flea markets, and wrestling matches. Friends,
boyfriends, business associates, socialites, celebrities, passers by:
all captured Warhol's attention—at least for the moment he looked
through the lens. In 2014, after a by-invitation-only competition among a
selection of leading American art museums, the Andy Warhol Foundation
for the Visual Arts designated the Cantor Arts Center as the permanent
home of Warhol’s archive of over 3600 contact sheets. The Cantor is
partnering with the Stanford University Libraries out of concern for
preservation and discoverability for the digitized images of this
archive.
