Photographs of celebrities captured in informal moments by the artist Andy Warhol are to be seen by the public for the first time.


The American pop artist focused on photography towards the end of his career and took pictures of his famous friends in candid and spontaneous moments.

Many of his subjects were showbusiness friends who visited his luxurious beach house or his New York studio known as The Factory.

Now the exhibit I'll Be Your Mirror will show superstars like John Lennon, Mick Jagger, Elizabeth Taylor, Madonna, Sting, Bruce Springsteen, Liza Minnelli, Diana Ross and Debbie Harry.

What a time capsule!

Candid and spontaneous moments make the most interesting pics. I'd like to see more from this collection.
