Big Picture

The Andy Warhol Museum unveiled a major public art installation in June, titled Anatomy of the Human, as part of its Pop District initiative. The mural was created by artist Mikael Owunna, who drew inspiration from African cosmologies and Warhol’s use of multiple silkscreens to produce stop-motion-style images. The artwork is located across from the museum in Pop Park on East General Robinson Street.
