ART
A museum devoted to the art, films and archives of Andy Warhol will be established in an old industrial building in the late artist’s native Pittsburgh, it was announced Tuesday by the Carnegie Institute, whose Carnegie Museum of Art will operate the facility. The museum is scheduled to open in 1992 and will be one of the first in the United States to exhibit the work of a single artist on the scale of the Picasso Museum in Paris. The core of the museum’s collection--more than 700 paintings, prints, drawings, sculptural works, films and videotapes--will be donated by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and the Dia Art Foundation.
