SUMMARY:Warhol Wednesdays: Jo Ann Caplin: "Leonardo\, Picasso\, Warhol"
DESCRIPTION:Ahead of the Warhol exhibit at the University of Pennsylvania\, 
 the three iconic artists—Leonardo\, Picasso and Warhol---in synthesis\, 
 will be presented as a lecture with images.\n\nFirst onemust define 
 “iconic images”. Oxford Leonardo scholar Martin Kemp in his book From 
 Christ to Coke defines an iconic image as one that transgresses its 
 original intent\, with widespread recognizability and “has come to carry 
 a rich series of varied associations for a very large number of people 
 across time and cultures.” For Leonardo: The Mona Lisa\, The Last 
 Supper\; for Picasso: Les Demoiselles d’Avignon\, Guernica\; for Andy 
 Warhol: Campbell Soup Cans\, Coke bottles\, Brillo Boxes\,and the 
 celebrities\, Mao\,Liz\, Elvis\, and of course Marilyn. Of these three 
 artists\, Leonardo and Warhol seem a fit\, since Warhol make his own 
 versions of the Mona Lisaand The Last Supper. But Picasso is necessary\, 
 because without his giving birth to the Modern Era in art\, Warhol 
 wouldn’t have been possible. Each of the three made an impact that helped 
 change the direction of art in their eras.\n\nFor 13 years Jo Ann Caplin 
 has been a Lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for 
 Contemporary Writing\, the Critical Writing Program\, for years teaching 
 courses such as The Science of Leonardo da Vinci\, and Einstein and 
 Picasso. Her expertise has been in the relationships between science and 
 art.\n\n
