On view during the 250th anniversary year of the United States of America, The Statue of Liberty from Bartholdi to Warhol highlights the Statue of Liberty’s continued relevance in American visual culture and the evolution of its image through art from the 1870s to the present. Co-organized with the Denver Art Museum, this exhibition examines the statue’s various representations in visual culture, from an artistic muse to a pop-culture icon to a symbol of immigration, patriotism, and resistance.
The Statue of Liberty from Bartholdi to Warhol is anchored by a rare cast of French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi’s bronze sculpture Liberty Enlightening the World (Statue of Liberty) (1894-1901), one of only five domestic-scale bronze reductions made during the artist’s lifetime. Bringing together nearly 100 artworks and objects from more than 70 artists, this exhibition showcases how artists, including painters and sculptors, have represented the statue's recognizable form over the past 150 years.
