Last month, Andy Warhol collectors and enthusiasts,

convened at the Samuel Owen Gallery~

Pop Up Shop, in New Canaan, Connecticut.

 The event, The Modern Show/Famous for 15 Minutes,

featured a rare and eclectic selection of works by Andy Warhol

and his contemporaries.

This special evening also featured Corey Grant Tippin.

An artist, designer and antiques dealer.

 Mr. Tippin was a fixture in Warhol’s notorious factory.

  He worked alongside Warhol to create the images

seen in the famous print series, “Ladies and Gentlemen”.

Mr. Tippin was gracious enough to host
a question and answer session about his time
at Warhol’s factory.

He also shared his Polaroids from his time with Warhol.

Mr. Tippin even had a Polaroid camera on hand that
evening, and was busy taking shots of the
guests which will be featured in a live art installation.

{can you find me?}

It was a great evening of art and art history.
