Warhol's "Chelsea Girls" at PFA
Wow. Talk about a treat.
As someone who's gone through an inexplicable interest on all things Warhol in the past three - ordering all three docs from Netflix, reading "Factory Girl," collecting and wearing outlandish wigs, wait... - I couldn't be more excited by the arrival of "Chelsea Girls," the seldom-seen film by Warhol that essentially launched the American career of Nico, while featuring a host of his Factory Superstars.
On Tuesday, May 1 @ 7:30, the film will be screening at the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, with the support of Cinema St. Louis. The film will be unspooling in its original, two-projector format in the PFA courtyard.
Damn. I'm nerding out already.
Duly bookmarked. Thanks for mentioning this.
And don't knock wig collecting until you have tried it...... (just kidding.. I think...?)
