Candy Darling in New York

Last night, artworks by Andy Warhol’s Superstar Candy Darling—who we are far more accustomed to see as the subject of works of art—were displayed at Outlaw Art Museum, in lower Manhattan.

Most of Darling’s works were donated to the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh years ago, so it’s a real treat to see the underground icon’s work back in New York.

Check out celebrated portraits of Darling, by Robert Mapplethorpe and Peter Haujr above, underneath one of Darling’s drawings.
