Pop art exhibition

Sijajni POP is the name of pop art exhibition, which was presented in Piran between 11.6. and 9.10. Exhibition was placed in palace Trevisini, which is a rare temporary gallery that has a view of the sea and beach. Old murals in the palace are perfect for Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Tom Wesselman, James Rosenquist, Robert Rauschenberg and JohnChemberlain art. All the art work is owned by Živa Škodlar and Laza Vujića that have a galleries in Ljubljana, our capital city, and all around the world. Pop art started in United Kingdom and expanded in USA, especially in New York. That is the place that Andy Warhol establish The Factory  which under one roof contained all forms of art that developed during pop art period. Exhibition in Piran had the same spirit of The Factory, but it was done in a unique way and with a lot of effort. Organizers introduced unknown artist to slovene public and organized different workshops and for the end of exhibition 28. 9. played a film I shoot Andy Warhol.
