Get a new perspective on our special exhibition Andy Warhol: Revelation in this multisensory tour led by Jessica Murphy, fragrance culture writer, educator, and Manager of Visitor Engagement at the Museum. Learn how Andy Warhol’s long-standing interest in fragrance—in its ability to capture memories and enhance other sensory experiences—impacted his work as a commercial illustrator and his identities as a consumer and a Catholic. This tour pairs works in the exhibition with a selection of perfumes, further illuminating the connections between spirituality and physicality in Warhol’s art.
