The exhibition “From Picasso to Warhol” represents a fascinating journey through the evolution of modern and contemporary art, exploring the dialogue between visual arts and music through the iconic vinyl record covers. Hosted by the City of Livorno, this unique exhibition boasts works from some of the most famous artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, from Matisse to Basquiat, from Dubuffet to Beuys, including art giants like Picasso, Mirò, Warhol, Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst, and many others.

The exhibition, curated by Vincenzo Sanfo, an authoritative art expert and curator of over 300 international exhibitions, is sponsored by the Club Tenco and benefits from the collaboration of a committee of experts, including Alessandra Mammi, Red Ronnie, and Sergio Secondiano Sacchi. Sanfo has a long history of collaboration with major international museums and has organized significant events such as the exhibitions on the Vatican Masterpieces and the Venice Biennale.
“From Picasso to Warhol” is not just a celebration of art, but also a tribute to contemporary graphics and the ability of artists to revolutionize the world of art through vinyl covers. The exhibition includes works ranging from Andy Warhol’s early experiments in the 1940s to his latest creations just before his death, along with musical illustrations by Toulouse Lautrec, Salvador Dalì, and other key figures of 20th-century art.

The exhibition also offers a look at unusual collaborations between artists and musicians, documenting surprising interactions between figures like Lady Gaga, the Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, and artists like Mario Schifano and Andy Warhol, who created their own music bands. A unique exhibition that promises to surprise and enchant visitors with its wealth of discoveries and extraordinary works, conceived to become iconic record covers and destined to enter the homes of millions of people.
