The University of Kentucky Art Museum exhibition “Face Value: Photographs by Doris Ulmann and Andy Warhol” showcases the work of two of America’s most renowned artists. On view now through April 23.
“Face Value” brings together washerwomen, weavers, fashion designers and sports heroes, like Kentucky’s own Muhammad Ali. It provides access to insular communities defined by history and geography, including Shaker villages and Gullah settlements, as well as hotspots like Studio 54 and Fire Island. And most importantly, it offers an unlikely pair of portraitists, who know that photography can be slow or fast, grainy or sharp, factual or full of fiction.
The UK Art Museum, located in the Singletary Center for the Arts at Rose Street and Euclid Avenue, is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, and noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free but donations are encouraged.
